The Metropolitan Room hosts Manhattan's most exciting 'American Idol' style competition. The third annual 'Metrostar Talent Challenge' Trials begin July 12, 2010 with a grand finale on August 30th, 2010.
42nd Street Moon continues its fifteenth season of Uncommon Musicals in Concert with Alameda native Rick Besoyan's riotously funny The Student Gypsy (or 'The Prince of Liederkranz'), the 1963 follow-up to his smash-hit operetta-spoof, Little Mary Sunshine. Maureen McVerry, who made her highly-acclaimed company debut last year in Pardon My English, returns to play the role of gypsy queen Zampa Allescu. The show previews on March 27 & 28, opens on March 29 at 6 pm, and runs through April 13, with a special family matinee on Saturday April 5 @ 1 pm.
