Off-Center Returning to City Center#1

Posted: 3/4/14 at 11:18am

Just got an email from City Center that Encores! Off-Center is returning this summer. The first production is a concert version of Randy Newman's Faust, with Newman playing the devil (as he did on the recording years ago). It's on July 1, 2014 at 7:30pm. Other shows are going to be announced on March 10. Faust is kind of an odd choice. I know it had one production that was not especially well-received. I like the recording.

I would love to see it. I have the CD but amazon has a 2 cd version of it.

Will wait to see if this pops up on one of my clubs.

I admire FAUST more than I love the recording, but think it has some capital-B Brilliant moments in it. And to see Mr. Newman himself reprise the Devil, that'll be a treat! Damn it City Center, you're making me deal with the devil again.


Words don't deserve that kind of malarkey. They're innocent, neutral, precise, standing for this, describing that, meaning the other, so if you look after them you can build bridges across incomprehension and chaos. But when they get their corners knocked off, they're no good anymore…I don't think writers are sacred, but words are. They deserve respect. If you get the right ones in the right order, you can nudge the world a little.
