Profile for colelyricist

I am a vintage York-y too....I have had three mainstage productions there: AFTER THE FAIR, THE ROAD TO QATAR! and INVENTING MARY MARTIN and readings of my other shows. Find that collaborator (or even better...plural...more pots on the stove mean more chances)

Richard Kind was going to play David Merrick in the first concert and wound up getting a TV show, so the great Bill Nolte did the role and killed in it, so we kept him. Here's a link to a blog that has a fabulous review of the recent concert and cd: http://mr-bdway.simplesite.com/

Just scroll down a bit!

also here on Broadwayworld is a great photo set from the monday night concert.

The new Original Cast Album of the Broadway at Birdland concert version of Merman's Apprentice (book & lyrics by Stephen Cole, music by David Evans) is available on amazon.com. The reviews for the concert have been fabulous. 

"MERMAN’S APPRENTICE hits the bull’s eye! Melodies that have the perfect period pizzazz to remind us of when Broadway really was Broadway. "
