(PARSIPPANY, NJ) -- The Women’s Theater Company, a professional theater company in Parsippany, NJ, presents Musical of Musicals (The Musical), written by Joanne Bogart and Eric Rockwell - a hilarious satire of musical theatre. The production runs March 24 to April 2 Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00pm and Sundays at 3:00pm.
In the play, one story becomes five delightful musicals, each written in the distinctive style of a different master of the form, from Rodgers and Hammerstein to Stephen Sondheim. The basic plot: June is an ingenue who can’t pay the rent and is threatened by her evil landlord. Will the handsome leading man come to the rescue? The variations are: a Rodgers & Hammerstein version (set in Kansas in August, complete with a dream ballet), a Sondheim version (featuring the landlord as a tortured artistic genius who slashes the throats of his tenants in revenge for not appreciating his work), a Jerry Herman version; an Andrew Lloyd Webber version and a Kander & Ebb version set in a speakeasy in Chicago).
Musical of Musicals (The Musical) stars Patricia Durante, Scott McGowan, Jenna Ravenda, Zach Mazouat. The Producing Artistic Director is Barbara Krajkowski, Director/Choreographer is Lauren Moran Mills, and the Musical Director is Deborah Martin.
Tickets are $25 for adults and $20 for seniors. To purchase tickets online please visit www.womenstheater.org or call 973 335 3038.
The Women’s Theater Company is located at the Parsippany Playhouse at 1130 Knoll Road, Lake Hiawatha, NJ.
