The Marsh Theatre Continues Monday Night MarshStream Series With Pieces From Amy Oestreicher
Like many theaters in our community, The Marsh has postponed all in-person shows until further notice. But that won't stop Monday Night Marsh from continuing to feature unique works-in-progress. Monday Night MarshStream is the new Monday Night Marsh with a few twists. Every Monday at 7:30pm, the company will bring you live plays, musicals, and projects from performers, both familiar and new, via ZOOM.
Join in every Monday at 7:30pm at https://themarsh.org/runs/mnmarshstream.
On July 13, the stream will feature a 30 minute series of musical pieces presented by Amy Oestreicher. A Q&A with the audience will take place after the performance.
This will be a 30 minute performance combining NEW excerpts from two of Amy's award-winning original one-woman musicals, "Passageways: Songs of Connection, Abnormal & Sublime" and her first Broadway World-nominated "Best Theatre Debut" work, "Gutless & Grateful." Join her for a whirlwind of songs she has written, composed and performed nationwide, with a story of resilience, beating the odds, and finding joy.
