Prospect Theater Company has announced the cast of By The Numbers, a part of the company's new IGNITE Series at The Times Center, featuring today's new voices shaping the future of musical theater. This one-night-only concert event will be Saturday, June 27th at 8pm. The evening features the world premiere performance of 12 "micro-musicals" created in Prospect's 2015 Musical Theater Lab. Each of these original, hot-off-the-presses musical theater shorts runs under seven minutes, and has been inspired by a number -- one through twelve -- creating a song cycle collectively written over the lab's month-long time span by participating composers & lyricists.
As previously announced, the twelve writing teams featured in By The Numbers include Jill Abramovitz (It Shoulda Been You) & Brad Alexander (See Rock City & Other Destinations); Marion Adler (Enter the Guardsman) & Peter Foley (The Hidden Sky); Sammy Buck (Like You Like It) & Clay Zambo (Windjammers); EllaRose Chary & Sooyeon Lee (The Daguerreotype); Sara Cooper & Zach Redler (The Memory Show); Mindi Dickstein (Broadway's Little Women) & Peter Melnick (Adrift in Macao); Susan DiLallo & Stephen Weiner (Once Upon A Time in New Jersey); Michelle Elliott & Danny Larsen (The Yellow Wood); Beth Falcone (Wanda's World); Michael R. Jackson & Anna K. Jacobs (Teeth); Peter Mills (Illyria) & Deborah Abramson (Marco Polo); Maryrose Wood (The Tutor) & Andrew Gerle (Meet John Doe). Full biographies of participating writers can be viewed on Prospect's website.
