Ryan Alvarado, Andrea Bianchi and More to Star in FIXING FRANKIE Industry Reading

Little Red Light Theatre in association with Rochele Seskin will present an industry reading of Fixing Frankie, a new musical conceived by Joe Langworth and Steve Marzullo with book and lyrics by Mr. Langworth, music by Mr. Marzullo, and co-directed by Michael Blatt and Mr. Langworth. The by-invitation-only presentation will take place on Thursday, April 17 at ART/New York Rehearsal Studios.

Young Frankie Scordato wrestles with sexuality, faith and approval, amidst the endearing chaos of an Italian-American household. Searching for self-acceptance, Frankie escapes to New York City in the 1980s. We follow this coming-of-age story from AIDS to the legalization of gay marriage, raising the question of a survivor’s place, in an ever-changing world.

The cast for Fixing Frankie is Ryan Alvarado ( Eduardo), Andrea Bianchi (Mom), Greyson Chapman (Young Frankie), Felicia Finley (Patti/Sister Agatha), Laura Pavles (Margaret), George Psomas (Frankie), Steven Scionti (Dad) and Joe Verga (Lucas). The stage manager is Meg Rosenberg. The stage directions will be read by Lia-Shea Tillett.
