Meet the current cast of Broadway's THE BOOK OF MORMON below!
Last summer, The Public Theater, Michael Friedman, and Alex Timbers reunited to gift New York City with a free production of LOVE'S LABOUR'S LOST at the Delacorte Theater in Central Park. Like their BLOODY BLOODY ANDREW JACKSON, the team used brilliant and inspired anachronisms to make the Shakespearean comedy relevant for modern audiences. They also did it as a musical. Now Ghostlight Records has released the audaciously quirky LOVE'S LABOUR'S LOST (Original Cast Recording) for us all to enjoy.
The original cast recording for the new musical adaptation of William Shakespeare's LOVE'S LABOUR'S LOST as seen in the Public Theater's Shakespeare In The Park production last summer is now available on iTunes.
