Full Cast Set for Musical UPSIDE DOWN at AMT Theater
Performances begin on March 5, 2025.
The full cast has been revealed for the upcoming Off-Broadway bow of the new musical Upside Down, written by Al Tapper and Tony Sportiello, with an official opening March 7th at AMT Theater. (Previews March 5th and 6th)
Jeffrey Kringer, Brogan Nelson, and Matthew Liu head up Upside Down, a world where women rule the military, school teachers make multi-million dollar salaries, and 90% of the population is gay. Jack (Kringer) and Robert (Liu), two gay theater writers, are desperate to have a Broadway hit and are convinced that the only path to success is to write something that has never been tried before - the world's first Broadway straight musical. Where men sing and dance with women instead of other men. Tammy (Nelson), the straight torch singer from Tennessee, finds herself down on her luck in her search for her Midtown Boy. Worlds collide and lessons begin on teaching the boys the ways of the heterosexual world. It's bold. It's outrageous. It's Upside Down.
Joining them are Kelli Maguire as Broadway producer Robin Bird, Gina Milo as talent agent Maggie Burns, Ashanti J'Aria as President Grant & critic Jane Tannenbaum, Kira Sarai Helper as General Howe, Josh Powell as vitriolic TV host Lou Smalls, Anthony Festa as Pastor Jake, and Patrick Brady as lovesick neurotic Eugene. Also in the cast are Bernie Baldassaro, Lauren Gemelli, Stephanie Maloney, and Stanley Martin.
