A New York return after 22 years! The Alloy Theater Company presents "Tell Me On A Sunday" with music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Don Black and Richard Maltby, Jr. and stars 2007 MAC award nominee Maxine Linehan. The show will run on Sundays from now through May 18th at The Laurie Beechman Theater @The West Bank Café 407 W42nd Street.
Tell Me on A Sunday, Andrew Lloyd Webber's classic musical, charts the course of a young English hat designer, Emma, newly arrived to New York City in search of adventure, success and of course love. Originally written as a one woman musical for English musical theatre star Marti Webb, "Tell Me On a Sunday" was combined with Lloyd Webber's "Variations" to form "Song and Dance", a two-act concert. The show, in a revised form, opened on Broadway in 1985 starring Bernadette Peters, who won a Tony Award for her performance. The Alloy Theater Company recreates the musical in its original one-act form in the intimate setting of the Laurie Beechman Theater.Emma is played by 2007 MAC award nominee Maxine Linehan. This up and coming Irish actress has international credits which include Nunsense, The Sound of Music, Oliver!, Crazy for You, Nunsense II, A Kind of Loving, Lovers, The Children of Lir and The Man of La Mancha. Others who have sung the score, which includes such memorable tunes as "Tell Me On a Sunday," "Unexpected Song," "Take That Look Off Your Face" and "Come Back with the Same Look in Your Eyes," include Lulu, Sarah Brightman, Gemma Craven and Alice Ripley, the latter at the Kennedy Center.Videos
