In recent years, The Musical Theater Project has presented a version of its The Song Is You series that focuses on the new wave of productions that have changed the face of the Broadway music in the last 25 years.
Now in its sixth year, the show will feature numbers from a bunch of VERY recent shows. They include the 2021 version of David Lindsay-Abaire’s play Kimberly Akimbo; the 2022 stage reworking of the 1959 Marilyn Monroe film, Some Like It Hot; Shucked, the 2023 musical about corn; and the 2023 Kander/Ebb and Lin-Manuel Miranda show, New York, New York.
Sheri Gross and Nancy Maier will co-host, providing background and narrative. Singers include Eric Fancher and Nicole Sumlin.
They’ll perform the show at the Chagrin Valley Little Theatre on Saturday August 26; the Friday show at Near West Theatre has been cancelled. Go here for tickets.
