The NFCT’s 58th season includes: LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS OCTOBER 23 - NOVEMBER 15 By Howard Ashman and Alan Menken The Broadway and Hollywood sci-fi smash musical, written by Howard Ashman and Alan Menken, tells the story of meek floral assistant Seymour Krelborn, who stumbles across a new breed of plant he names Audrey II, after his co-worker crush. This foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune to the down- and-out Seymour as long as he keeps feeding it what it wants. Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II’s out-of-this-world origins and true intent and sets out to put things right. WHO’S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF JANUARY 15 - 31 By Edward Albee Late night drinks at George and Martha’s after a faculty party turn into a harrowing evening for the unsuspecting guests, Nick and Honey. Edward Albee’s stinging domestic drama depicts a toxic marriage laced with cruel games and black humor, and lays bare the dark underside of human relationships. BECKY’S NEW CAR MARCH 4 – 20 By Steven Dietz Have you ever been tempted to flee your own life? Becky Foster is caught in middle age, middle management, and in a middling marriage-with no prospects for change on the horizon. Then one night a socially inept and grief- stricken millionaire stumbles into the car dealership where Becky works. Becky is offered nothing short of a new life in this hilarious look at marriage, motherhood and the mundane matters of life. DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS MAY 12- 29 Music and lyrics by David Yazbek, book by Jeffrey Lane Sophisticated, suave with a good dash of mischief, this hysterical musical comedy features a delightfully jazzy score by David Yazbek (The Full Monty) and was nominated for 11 TONY awards. Based on the popular 1988 film, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, centers on two con men living on the French Riviera. Lawrence Jameson makes his lavish living by talking rich ladies out of their money. Freddy Benson more humbly swindles women by waking their compassion with fabricated stories of his grandmother’s failing health. When they each target beautiful heiress Christine Colgate, a hilarious battle of cons ensues that keeps audiences laughing, humming and guessing to the end. URINETOWN JULY 21 - AUGUST 7 Music by Mark Hollmann, lyrics by Hollmann and Greg Kotis, and book by Greg Kotis The Tony-award-winning, hilarious comedy Urinetown: the Musical is a bold satire on politics, capitalism, and socialism, as well as a parody of such hit musicals as Les Miserables and West Side Story.

  • Andrew Lloyd Webber's Musicals
    MASARYK UNIVERSITY Faculty of Education Department of English Language and Literature ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER’S MUSICALS Diploma Thesis Brno 2009 Radka Adamová Supervisor: Mgr. Lucie Podroužková, PhD. 1 BIBLIOGRAPHICAL ENTRY Adamová, Radka. Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Musicals Brno: Masaryk University, Faculty of Education, Department of English Language and Literature, 2007. Diploma thesis supervisor Mgr. Lucie Podroužková, Ph. D. ANNOTATION This diploma thesis deals with British musical composer Andrew Lloyd Webber and his works. The first part of the thesis introduces Lloyd Webber’s biography, his close collaborators as well as his production company the Really Useful Group and description of all his works. The main part of the thesis is aimed at his musicals Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and Jesus Christ Superstar , rather their origin and development, the main plot and their main characters that have many things in common. Both these musicals are based on topics from the Bible. The thesis also deals with the librettos and their translation into Czech. ANOTACE Diplomová práce se zabývá britským hudebním skladatelem Andrew Lloyd Webberem a jeho díly. První část práce seznamuje s Lloyd Webberovým životopisem, jeho blízkými spolupracovníky, stejně jako s jeho produkční společností Really Useful Group a popisem všech jeho děl. Hlavní část práce je zaměřena na muzikály Josef a jeho úžasný pestrobarevný plášť a Jesus Christ Superstar , přesněji řečeno jejich vznik a vývoj, hlavní dějovou linii a jejich hlavní postavy, které mají mnoho společného. Oba tyto muzikály jsou založeny na příbězích z Bible. Práce se také zabýva librety obou muzikálů a jejich překladem do češtiny. 2 I declare that I have worked on this thesis on my own and used only the sources listed in the Bibliography.

  • Low Male Voice Repertoire in Contemporary Musical Theatre: a Studio and Performance Guide of Selected Songs 1996-2020
    LOW MALE VOICE REPERTOIRE IN CONTEMPORARY MUSICAL THEATRE: A STUDIO AND PERFORMANCE GUIDE OF SELECTED SONGS 1996-2020 by Jeremy C. Gussin Submitted to the faculty of the Jacobs School of Music in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree, Doctor of Music Indiana University December 2020 Accepted by the faculty of the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Music Doctoral Committee __________________________________________ Ray Fellman, Research Director __________________________________________ Brian Gill, Chair __________________________________________ Jane Dutton __________________________________________ Peter Volpe December 10, 2020 ii Copyright © 2020 Jeremy Gussin iii Preface This project is intended to be a resource document for bass voices and teachers of low male voices at all levels. For the purposes of this document, I will make use of the established term low male voice (LMV) while acknowledging that there is a push for the removal of gender from voice classification in the industry out of respect for our trans, non-binary and gender fluid populations. In addition to analysis and summation of musical concepts and content found within each selection, each repertoire selection will include discussions of style, vocal technique, vocalism, and character in an effort to establish routes towards authenticity in the field of musical theatre over the last twenty five years. The explosion of online streaming and online sheet music resources over the last decade enable analysis involving original cast recordings, specific noteworthy performances, and discussions on transposition as it relates to the honoring of character and capability of an individual singer. My experiences with challenges as a young low voice (waiting for upper notes to develop, struggling with resonance strategies above a D♭4) with significant musicianship prowess left me searching for a musically challenging outlet outside of the Bel Canto aesthetic.

    T I N A - T H E T I N A T U R N E R M U S I C A L and GHOSTLIGHT RECORDS PRESENT FIRST SINGLE FROM UPCOMING ORIGINAL CAST ALBUM WITH ACCOMPANYING MUSIC VIDEO The first single from the upcoming TINA – THE TINA TURNER MUSICAL cast album is released today, to download and stream, by the Producers of Tina – The Tina Turner Musical and Ghostlight Records (5 February 2019) featuring Adrienne Warren performing the iconic song River Deep - Mountain High. Warren, who has played the role in the hit West End production since its world premiere, is featured on an accompanying music video of the single also released today. Click here to download and stream the single and here to watch the music video. Tina Turner famously recorded River Deep - Mountain High in 1966, produced by Phil Spector as his ground-breaking masterpiece using his trademark Wall of Sound music technique. Turner would later recall, "I must have sung that 500,000 times. I was drenched with sweat. I had to take my shirt off and stand there in my bra to sing”. George Harrison, who worked with Spector when he later produced Let It Be for the Beatles, would later call it ‘a perfect record from start to finish’. River Deep – Mountain High was recorded in January 2019 at Angel Studios and produced by TINA – THE TINA TURNER MUSICAL’s Musical Supervisor, Nicholas Skilbeck. Tina Turner said: “At that very difficult time in my life, recording this song opened my eyes to possibilities. I felt liberated, excited, ready to challenge myself vocally.
