Broadway Bullet (http://www.broadwaybullet.com) covers the theatre scene every week with interviews, music and performances from Broadway to Off-Off-Broadway; from Tony winners to the future innovators of our craft.
In addition to inclusion in our weekly program, we are making each NYMF show segment available separately... only here on Broadway World!

Each segment contains an interview and music demos from the productions... some even have exclusive, in-studio performances from the composers!

Today's feature production: Castronauts
Book by Bobby Houston and Patricio Bisso
Lyrics by Bobby Houston
Music by Randy Courts

Step into 'El Club Voodoo,' an illegal cabaret on a side street in Havana, where impresaria Lolita presides over an unruly troupe of dancing girls, dissidents, bootleggers and drag queens. On the night Castro himself decides to take a look, farce turns to fiasco -- and the troupe has no choice but to set sail for Florida in a converted '56 Chevy. Castronauts is a spicy blend -- a witty backstage comedy and an unexpected profile in courage.
