Jonathan Groff-Led A NEW BRAIN Will Get Two-Disc Album from PS Classics

Over the summer, Jonathan Groff led the Encores! Off-Center production of William Finn and James Lapine's A New Brain, and fans who didn't make it to the show need not worry any longer. BroadwayWorld has just learned that the production will get a two-disc cast recording (featuring the entire 95 minute show) from PS Classics, which will hit shelves on February 5, 2016.

The production also starred Jenni Barber, Quentin Earl Darrington, Bradley Dean, Dan Fogler, Ana Gasteyer, Josh Lamon, Aaron Lazar, Alyse Alan Louis and Rema Webb.

A New Brain, inspired by William Finn's personal experiences, is a medical tragedy seen through the iris of a Looney Tunes short. After struggling composer Gordon Michael Schwinn (Jonathan Groff) collapses face-first into a plate of spaghetti, he is diagnosed with a brain tumor and is forced to come to terms with his creative ambitions and the lovable screw-ups in his life: an overbearing mother (Ana Gasteyer), a ruthless kiddie-show host (Dan Fogler), and a boyfriend who'd "rather be sailing" (Aaron Lazar).

The musical opened at Lincoln Center Theater on June 18, 1998 and ran for 78 performances, winning the Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding Off-Broadway Musical.
