The producers of A Christmas Story, The Musical have announced further casting for the November 5 -December 30 Broadway engagement at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre.

Orange County-based 3D Theatrical's surprisingly ebullient new production of the Irving Berlin musical revue I LOVE PIANO--now performing through September 23 at the Plummer Auditorium in Fullerton before it moves to the Redondo Beach Performing Arts Center, September 28-30--is buoyed by its composer's indelible contributions to the Great American Songbook. Despite a paper-thin yet serviceable storyline, the show is redeemed by a six-member song-and-dance ensemble that will wow you with one beautifully-rendered musical performance after another. This heartwarming yet briskly peppy musical revue is definitely worth your time.
3-D Theatricals will present the fourth show of its 2012 season, with the songs of Irving Berlinfeatured in I LOVE A PIANO, choreography by Kami Seymour, musical direction by Daniel Thomas, and directed by David Lamoureux. I LOVE A PIANO opened September 8 and performs through Sunday, September 23 at the historic Plummer Auditorium, 201 E. Chapman Ave. in Fullerton. View photos below!
The Muny's production of ALADDIN stars Robin de Jesus in the title role. Before rehearsals, Jesus sat down with Mike Isaacson to discuss his first experiences in musical theatre and how he landed the role of Aladdin. Watch the video interview below!
I missed press night for DISNEY'S ALADDIN: THE NEW STAGE MUSICAL, but I decided to go down this Tuesday and check out the production from the free seats. Armed with a pair of binoculars, which I didn't really need, I was able to take in this wonderfully charming presentation after all. And, I was not disappointed. And, those of you who bring children in tow won't be either. This is a delightfully colorful production that captures the feel of the original movie, while adding quite a few new musical numbers (that were in the original draft of the movie) and wrinkles to it. I highly recommend this spirited show.
