Songwriter Adam Gwon Brings Musical Theatre Magic to Atlanta
The Late Night cabaret at Serenbe Playhouse on June 18 with songwriter Adam Gwon will be an Atlanta theatre summer highlight. Gwon is landing top musical theatre awards as quickly as he's booking his shows around the world. His critically-acclaimed musical ORDINARY DAYS makes its Southeast Premiere at Serenbe Playhouse through June 25th. Gwon will join cast members as well as several other top Atlanta singers on the 18th in a special post-show cabaret event.
Start off your evening on the 18th by attending ORDINARY DAYS, a musical story of four young New Yorkers whose lives intersect as they search for fulfillment, happiness, love and cabs. Through a score of vibrant and memorable songs, their experiences ring startlingly true to life. Directed by Justin Anderson, music directed by Will Shuler; featuring performances by Christy Baggett, Brian Clowdus, Laura Floyd, and Dustin Lewis. 8:30pm; $20 ($15 students).
"ORDINARY DAYS introduces a promising newcomer to our talent-hungry musical theater. Mr. Gwon writes crisp, fluid and funny lyrics that reflect the racing minds of four New Yorkers on a nervous search for their immediate futures .ORDINARY DAYS...captures with stinging clarity that uneasy moment in youth when doubts begin to cloud hopes for a future of unlimited possibility." --Charles Isherwood, The New York Times
Round the evening off with a special treat. Gwon will join music director Will Shuler, cast members Baggett, Clowdus, Floyd and Lewis, plus special guests Ingrid Cole and Jeremy Wood for a late night cabaret. Performers will deliver a mix of musical theatre standards, new numbers and more Gwon songs in this one-of-a-kind event. 10:30pm; $30.
