Celebrating its 25th Season, Urban Stages in association with Sara Katz presents a new musical by Larson and Kleban Award winning composer Joe Iconis entitled ReWrite, a musical comedy triple feature, directed by John Simpkins.
ReWrite will began previews on Saturday, December 6, and opened on Wednesday, December 10, 2008 and will initially run through Saturday, January 3, 2009.
Urban Stages is located at 259 West 30 Street (between 7th and 8th Avenues). Tickets will be $40 ($20
during previews) and are available at Smarttix.com or by calling 212.868.4444.
ReWrite deals with time, or more specifically deadlines. The deadlines one imposes on oneself and the deadlines that the universe imposes on us. It's about living up to the expectations you created for yourself before time runs out. It's about normal people, not the sort of people who get musicals written about them. ReWrite, a musical comedy triple feature includes the mini-musicals Nelson Rocks, Miss Marzipan and The Process.
