Make Mine Manhattan - 2012 - Off-Broadway Tickets, News, Info & More
The original 1940s revue Make Mine Manhattan is a loving send-up of New York City’s most infamous borough. Struggling actors, disgruntled theatre critics and hapless out-of-towners all bite the Big Apple in this sparkling entertainment!
Make Mine Manhattan will feature choreography by Rommy Sandhu (How Now, Dow Jones, Encores! Applauseassociate), musical direction and arrangements by Fran Minarik (Gatsby, Making the Boys), lighting design by Joe Hodge (Perfect Crime, Gatsby) and costume design by Martin T. Lopez (Penelope, Orpheus).
UMC is presenting Make Mine Manhattan as it was originally conceived by its authors under the title A Nice Place to Visit; the initial drafts describe the musical as “a pocket revue, designed for a cast of eight with two pianos”. This new one-act production of the hit revue will feature discarded dialogue and four musical numbers cut prior to the revue’s Broadway bow: “I Gotta Have You”, “New York Gal”, “Old Fashioned Girl”, “Please Take It Back”.
