BROADWAY TIME CAPSULE: 1996 – BROADWAY HITS FROM THE YEAR IT ALL BEGAN
Fundraiser to support MTG’s Student Outreach Programs!
Musical Theatre Guild brings the year 1996 to theatrical life with an evening of music from shows running on Broadway during MTG's founding year
“Musical Theatre Guild launched its’ first productions in the year 1996, so we thought it would be great to revisit that year and give our audience a chance to hear music from the many shows running on Broadway that year,” Co-Director, Will Collyer
“Say you wandered up to the TKTS booth in Times Square in 1996… What show did you see that night? Our members will bring 1996 Broadway to life by performing songs from those productions. And in MTG fashion, the music will be a mix of classics and less-familiar choices. Just as our audiences have come to expect from us! The Catalina Jazz Club will provide the perfect relaxed setting for an evening of music, memories, and fun!” -Co-Director Susan Edwards Martin
Joining Collyer and Edwards Martin on the artistic staff is Musical Director Jeff Hoeppner. Leesa Freed will stage manage the performance. Guild performers scheduled to appear include Eileen Barnett, Roger Befeler, Jennifer Bennett, Teri Bibb, Will Collyer, Joshua Finkel, Tal Fox, Julie Garnye, Kim Huber, Maura M. Knowles, Susan Edwards Martin, Kevin Matsumoto, Tonoccus McClain, Dana Meller, Barbara Minkus, Chelsea Morgan Stock, Gabriel Navarro, Trance Thompson, Diane Vincent, Paul Wong, Robert Yacko, and David Zack.
