An exclusive Lennon the Musical
photo screensaver is available at the show's website, as well as a
limited edition Lennon poster with the purchase of one or more tickets.
Lennon, which recently ended
its pre-Broadway run in San Francisco, will open at the Broadhurst
Theatre on August 4th after beginning previews on July 7th. Produced
by Allan McKeown, Edgar Lansbury, Clear Channel Entertainment and
Jeffrey Sine by arrangement with Lennon's widow Yoko Ono, the
biographical musical of the Beatles legend features Don Scardino's book and direction.
According to the website, Lennon'sensemble "consists of 9 extraordinary and diverse
performers who will portray dozens of characters. Everybody plays
everybody, and nobody ever leaves the stage." Will Chase, Chuck Cooper, Julie Danao, Mandy Gonzalez, Marcy Harriell,
Chad Kimball, Terrence Mann, Julia Murney, and Michael Pott are the nine stars.
In addition to songs from the Lennon catalogue, the show includes three of his rare and unpublished
songs--"India, India" and "I Don't
Want to Lose You" which were never published, and exist only on private
recordings, and "Cookin' (in the Kitchen of Love)," which was recorded by Ringo Starr in 1976, but was never recorded by Lennon.
