The new musical A WALK ON THE MOON, making its New York premiere on Monday, June 15 at The Laura Pels Theatre at the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre, will officially open the box office on Monday, June 1 at 12:00 PM with the first 50 people in line getting tickets for $19.69 (two tickets per person). This strictly limited engagement will run until Saturday, August 22, with an official press opening on Monday, June 29.
The new musical, inspired by the award-winning hit film, will be directed by Tony Award nominee Sheryl Kaller, with book and additional lyrics by original screenwriter Pamela Gray*, with music and lyrics by Tony Award and Grammy Award nominee AnnMarie Milazzo, and with choreography by Josh Prince. A WALK ON THE MOON is a stirring new musical about dreams differed and one women’s desire for a life that isn’t strictly earthbound. Set in the Summer of 1969 against a blend of pulse-pounding ‘60s sounds with modern pop sensibilities, this story speaks to a moment when the world was alive with seismic change in culture and identity — much like today.
Six-time Emmy and Tony Award nominee Tovah Feldshuh will provide the hilarious voice of “Mrs. Fogler” broadcast over the PA system at the Catskills Bungalow Colony. Feldshuh played the role of “Bubbe Lillian Kantrowitz” in the 1999 film of the same name that also starred Diana Lane, Viggo Mortensen, Liev Schreiber, Anna Paquin and was directed by Tony Goldwyn.
The cast will also feature Talia Suskauer as Pearl; Max Chernin as Marty; Sam Gravitte as Walker; Andréa Burns as Lillian; with Sophie Pollono as Alison and Oscar Williams as Ross.
It’s the Summer of 1969. Pearl Kantrowitz, a Brooklyn mother and housewife, takes the annual trip north to a Catskills bungalow colony just as the world begins to shift beneath her feet. The country is reaching for the moon. A new spirit of freedom is sweeping the nation. And an unexpected encounter leads her to a musical festival happening just around the corner. As the countercultural revolution begins, and music starts to change the world, Pearl awakens to a life beyond the one she's always known.
Along with Talia Suskauer (Pearl); Max Chernin (Marty); Sam Gravitte (Walker); Andréa Burns (Lillian); Tovah Feldshuh (Voice of Mrs. Fogler); Sophie Pollono (Alison) and Oscar Williams (Ross), the cast will feature Jodi Bluestein (Understudy); Leo Caravano and Reid Gardner Clarke (alternating as Danny); Andrew Faria (Irv); Tucker Gold (Understudy); David R. Gordon (Neil); Megan Kane (Bunny); Caroline Pernick (Eleanor); Ellie Schwartz (Understudy); Richard Spitaletta (Understudy); Becca Suskauer (Rhoda); and Michael Tacconi (Stan).
