Stephen Sondheim famously commented that his Sweeney Todd is an opera when performed in an opera house and a musical when performed in a theatre. A similar comparison might be made for composer/lyricist Joe Iconis' Things To Ruin, which in the past several years has played New York engagements in a legitimate theatre (Second Stage), two quasi-theatre/music spaces (Ars Nova and the much-missed Zipper Factory) and two music venues (Joe's Pub and its current home for two more performances, (Le) Poisson Rouge).
Sh-K-Boom & Ghostlight Records have joined with Sara Jane Mercer to present Things to Ruin for a strictly-limited run at (Le) Poisson Rouge (158 Bleecker Street). Show times are February 28 at 10pm, March 7 at 7:30pm, and March 20 and March 28 at 10:30pm. The cast includes Ben Arons, Nick Blaemire, Starr Busby, Katrina Rose Dideriksen, Ian Kagey, Carrie Manolakos, Eric William Morris, Mike Pettry, Lance Rubin, Jason 'Sweet Tooth' Williams and Joe Iconis.
MORGAN KARR, Nashville-born singer/songwriter, made his Rockwood Music Hall debut after playing to sold out crowds at Joe's Pub and The Bitter End this past fall. Adding a full band to his soaring vocals, Karr showcased his soulful pop/rock sound by playing his original music as well as his own twist on hits by Sara Bareilles, Bruno Mars, and The Fugees.

Tonight's opening night performance will feature special Things to Ruin and Sh-K-Boom/Ghostlight giveaways, and all attendees are invited to a special opening night celebration with the Things to Ruin gang after the show.

It is often said that in difficult times, some of the best art is created. If the current array of shows playing downtown are any indication of the future, then that future looks considerably brighter than the weather we've been experiencing lately. From explorations of gentrification to giving the finger to the world of Christian rock, the indie community has tackled it all and with a stunning level of grace. The companies that have provided the Indie theatre scene with such gems? Art. Party Theater Company, Wide Eyed Productions, Clout in the Mug Productions, and La Mama.
