DOGFIGHT (Ein Hässliches Spiel) DOGFIGHT (Ein hässliches Spiel) Genre: Musical Autoren: Musik und Songtexte von Benj Pasek und Justin Paul Buch von Peter Duchan Nach dem Warner Bros. Film und Drehbuch von Bob Comfort Deutsche Fassung von Daniel Große Boymann Inhalt: Es ist der 21. November 1963. Am Vorabend ihrer Entsendung in einen noch wenig bedeutenden militärischen Konflikt in Südostasien, feiern drei junge Rekruten eine wilde Nacht. Sie schließen eine ebenso übermütige wie grausame Wette ab, den "Dogfight". Aufgabe bei dieser Wette: Wer schleppt das hässlichste Mädchen ab? Auf der Suche nach einer Hässlichen trifft Eddie auf Rose, eine unbeholfene, aber idealistische Kellnerin. Aber Rose schreibt die Spielregeln dieser Wette um und zeigt Eddie, was echte Liebe bewirken kann. DOGFIGHT wurde anlässlich der Off-Broadway-Aufführungsserie im Sommer 2012 mit zwei renommierten Musicalpreisen - dem Richard Rodgers Award und dem Lortel Award for Outstanding Musical - ausgezeichnet. Das Stück zeigt die hässliche Seite männlichen Benehmens ebenso wie ihr Gegenteil, denn trotz aller Rauheit fehlt nicht die berührende Liebesgeschichte. Die Deutschsprachige Erstaufführung dieses berührenden Musical der beiden Oscar Preisträger Pasek & Paul fand am Theater für Niedersachsen in Hildesheim statt. Das Popmusical, das neben mitreisenden Uptempo-Nummern durch sehr gefühlvolle Balladen besticht, lief dort erfolgreich zwei Spielzeiten. Vom Team Pasek & Paul ist auch das Musical EDGES bei Musik und Bühne verfügbar.

  • Press Release: EDGES (2021)
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Alert for Theatre Editors, Reviewers and Calendar Listings Orange County premiere of Edges Chance Theater returns to live in-person performances for the first musical written by the award-winning songwriters of Dear Evan Hansen, Benj Pasek & Justin Paul ANAHEIM, CA: Chance Theater is excited to announce that the Orange County premiere of Pasek and Paul’s musical, Edges will be the third show in its 23rd Anniversary Season, and the first show presented live and in-person since shutting its doors on March 13, 2020. This clever and charming musical is directed by Resident Artist James Michael McHale and music direction is by Resident Artist Robyn Manion. The show is performing July 9 - August 8, 2021. Before they wrote Dear Evan Hansen, La La Land, The Greatest Showman, Dogfight, and many other modern musical classics, Benj Pasek and Justin Paul wrote a thrilling song cycle about four burgeoning adults asking classic coming-of-age questions about love, commitment, identity, and meaning. For the first time in Orange County, see how the Oscar, Grammy, Tony, and Golden Globe Award-winning song team started their journey — with a charming, witty and honest examination of adulthood that explores what happens when we’re teetering on the edge of the rest of our lives. Please note that this show contains adult language. Back in 2005, Benj Pasek and Justin Paul were undergraduates at the University of Michigan who were feeling dissatisfied with the roles they were being cast in for their college shows. Deciding to do something about it, Pasek and Paul (who had casually written only a couple of songs together at this point) decided to produce their own show -- an original piece called Edges that would be made up entirely of songs they would write and would star fellow college students.

  • Audition Pack
    AUDITION PACK ABOUT THE SHOW Dogfight is a hauntingly beautiful musical adapted from the 1991 Warner Brothers film of the same name starring River Phoenix and Lili Taylor. Dogfight has music and lyrics by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (Dear Evan Hansen, The Greatest Showman) and a book by Peter Duchan. The 2012 off-Broadway debut directed by Joe Mantello starred Derek Klena as Eddie and Lindsay Mendez as Rose. Plot synopsis1: Act One: In 1967, Eddie Birdlace, a U.S. Marine just returned from Vietnam, rides a Greyhound bus that is heading for San Francisco. As he travels through the night, he remembers Rose Fenny ("Prelude – Take Me Back") and the night he spent in San Francisco four years earlier. Memories overwhelm him... and suddenly it's November 21, 1963. The Greyhound bus becomes a military bus, carrying Private First Class Birdlace and his rowdy fellow Marines, all fresh out of training and ready for action. Arriving in San Francisco, they're eager to take the town by storm on their last night in the United States ("Some Kinda Time"). Birdlace and his two best friends, Boland and Bernstein, who call themselves the Three Bees ("We Three Bees"), are participating in a dogfight, a cruel game with simple rules. Each Marine puts $50 in the pot. The one who brings the ugliest date to the party wins the money. Birdlace and his friends set off to scour the city for potential dates ("Hey Good-Lookin'"). Birdlace ends up in a diner, where he sees Rose, a shy waitress, quietly playing guitar in a corner booth.
