Our friends at Angelwalk have announced their 2011/12 season. And they are kicking things off with a musical-revue entitled Off-Broadway On Stage. This revue was conceived by Angelwalk's Artistic Producer Brian Goldenberg, and is a musical journey through the off-Broadway archives. From The Fantasticks to Alter Boyz this off-Broadway musical revue will charm and delight audiences, while exposing them to some lesser known musical masterpieces. Award winning Musical Director Anthony Bastianon returns to Angelwalk Theatre at the musical helm of Off-Broadway On Stage.
Off-Broadway On Stage runs December 7-11
Next up, is the Canadian Premiere of I Love You Because. I Love You Because is a modern musical twist on Jane Austin's Pride and Prejudice, with music by Joshua Salzman and book and lyrics by Ryan Cunningham.
"Set in New York, a young, uptight greeting card writer's life is changed when he meets a flighty photographer." (Press Release) With an eccentric cast of friends and siblings providing the supporting cast, these two learn to love each other, not in spite, but because of their differences. The New York Times called I Love You Because "infectiously entertaining," while Talkin' Broadway said, "[it's] the perfect date musical."
Making his Angelwalk debut is director Darcy Evans. Darcy is perhaps best known for his work as the Associate Director for the Broadway production of Little Women, starring Sutton Foster. He has also worked extensively with the Stratford Shakespeare Festival. Also making her Angelwalk debut as the Musical Director for I Love You Because is Lily Ling. She was recently involved in Soulpepper's The Fantasticks, (which was phenomenal.) She is also distinguished as the first woman to conduct a Shaw main stage production, for her work on Kurt Weill's One Touch.
I Love You Because runs March 28 - April 15th.
