With music by Jule Stein, book by Garson Kanin and Lyrics by Comden and Green, Do Re Mi ran for 400 performances on Broadway in the early 60s. Phil Silvers, Nancy Walker, and Nancy Dussault were among the stars, and the song Make Someone Happy remains a popular standard. The show was revived by Encores in New York in 1999 starring Nathan Lane, Brian Stokes Mitchell, Heather Headley, and Randy Graff.
Now, Angelinos who can make it to Glendale this coming Monday at 7:30 will get a chance to see it performed as a concert staged reading (costumes, orchestra, blocking, but script in hand) by the fabulous Musical Theater Guild, who did the AMAZING Lippa Wild Party a few months back.
I bought my 1/2 price ticket last month. I just checked and there are still 8 more being offered by Gold Star Events. Unlike other MTG shows, this one is not scheduled to be repeated in Long Beach or Thousand Oaks, so Monday should be your one chance to see it.
Below you'll info from the MTG website about this production, and I've attached a link if you want 1/2 price tickets. (If you're not registered at Gold Star, you need to but it's very easy to do.)
Hope I see you there,
Steven :)
