THE STORY OF MY LIFE Gets Regional Re-do At Act II Playhouse

By:

The Story of My Life is set to get its first post-Broadway regional production in Spring of 2010 at Act II Playhouse in Pennsylvania.

Artistic director Bud Martin wrote on the Act II Insider blog "This is a show that I saw done as a reading in a play festival last year and wanted very much to do the show at Act II and then move it to New York. While I was not able to get it to Act II first, we will be the first ones to do it after its Broadway run. It is being directed by Richard Maltby, Jr. who has written and directed many shows, including AIN'T MISBEHAVIN'. Act II presented Richard's play, CLOSER THAN EVER two years ago. I had the privilege of meeting Richard and directing the national tour of STARTING HERE, STARTING NOW, which he wrote with David Shire. It was 30 years ago, and it is wonderful to reconnect with him again on this special new musical. I am privileged to be a part of it."

The rest of the Act II season will include Boeing Boeing, Pieces, Any Given Monday, and The Story Of My Life.
