Music by Marc Shaiman
Lyrics by Scott Wittman and Marc Shaiman
Book by Thomas Meehan
July 5 – July 29

Hairspray sweeps you away to 1960’s Baltimore where the 50’s are out and change is in the air! Loveable plus-size heroine, Tracy, has a passion for dancing, and wins a spot on the local TV dance program. Overnight she finds herself transformed from an outsider to teen celebrity.
Can a larger-than-life adolescent somehow manage to vanquish the program’s reigning princess, integrate the television show, and find true love all without mussing her hair?

What I've been doing or listening to whether it's theatre related, for a sound design or personal

Just got two shows up and running, "Sylvia" for the Boca Raton Theatre Guild and "The All American Genderf*ck Cabaret" for Thinking Cap Theatre. Both are great shows and I encourage you to see them. The "Cabaret" one I am running so say hi to the guy in the booth if you come by.

After a very succesful run with Kim Ehly's "Baby GirL", it's onward to the first production by Island City Stage, co-produced by Empire Stage. "The Twentieth Century Way" by Tom Jacobson. Nice mix of Jazz music with some 1910-1920 thrown in.

Get your geek on this Memorial Day weekend listening to live streaming content from "PHOENIX COMICON 2012" over at VTWProductions.com. If you can't listen live then download and listen to all of the panels (Cut Down Into Podcast Size Segments By Me) at your convenience, or subscribe to "Alpha Geek Radio" on iTunes. It couldn't be easier!

Listining to an Alternative Indie Love Song station from Pandora Radio. Getting ready for Love Burns: 2 one-act romantic comedies for Thinking Cap Theatre at Empire Stage. Check them out!

Working on "Last Call" with Michael Leeds and Terri Girvin. Going to be a fabulos one women show presented at Empire Stage. Look under the tag "SPECIAL DEALS" for a discount on tickets.
