Photo Flash: In Rehearsal with Sheldon Harnick and Off-Broadway's FIORELLO!
As previously announced, Berkshire Theatre Group (BTG)'s sold-out production of Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick's Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning musical Fiorello! will transfer to Off-Broadway's East 13th Street Theater (136 East 13th Street, between 3rd and 4th Avenues), home of Classic Stage Company. BroadwayWorld has a sneak peek at the company in rehearsal with Harnick below!
Directed by Bob Moss, founder of Playwright's Horizon's, this exciting production of Fiorello! will be the first full-scale New York City and Off-Broadway revival of the hit musical. Previews will begin Sunday, September 4, with opening night being held on Friday, September 9, 2016.
Fiorello! tells the story of New York's Mayor LaGuardia's rise from an immigrant's son to the feisty congressman who brought down the crooked Tammany Hall political machine. He's also the man singularly responsible for saving City Center from the wrecking ball and transforming it into Manhattan's first performing arts center. Songs from the 1959 show include "Little Tin Box," "Till Tomorrow," "Politics and Poker" and "When Did I Fall In Love?"
The young company of Fiorello! will feature Katie Birenboim, Michael Brahce, Rebecca Brudner, Dan Cassin, Chelsea Groen, Austin Lombardi, Matt McLean, Rylan Morsbach, Julius Reese, and Michael Sullivan, plus a 9-member ensemble.
