LET'S SING A SHOWTUNE Opens 1/18 at San Francisco's Alcove Theatre

By:

Kick off 2013 in style, with a brand-new musical revue featuring the songs of Bay Area composer Ron Lytle.

Best known for the San Francisco hit "Oh My Godmother!", Lytle is also the creator of "The Man Who Saved Christmas", "Another Man's Treasure", and many other popular musicals. His work has been produced throughout the United States and England.

"Show Tune!" features many of the best-loved numbers from Lytle's back-catalog, along with a heaping helping of brand new compositions from upcoming shows, and material written especially for this production. Crowd-pleasing musical theatre at its best, his songs brim over with infectious melodies and virtuosic rhymes.

It's all performed by a top-notch troupe of singing actors: Bidalia Albanese, Brian Couch, John Erreca, Kate Offer, Scott Phillips, and Jenifer Tice. Musical direction is by Evan Crone on piano. Roberta Drake sits in on drums, and John Greitzer slaps that bass.
