Photo Flash: Complete Look at Jarrod Emick, Lauren Kennedy and More in ZELDA
By: BWW News Desk Oct. 11, 2012
Flat Rock Playhouse is teaming with veteran Broadway composer Frank Wildhorn (For The Glory, The Scarlet Pimpernel, Wonderland) and lyricist Jack Murphy on a brand new "jazz age" musical set in Asheville, North Carolina. Loosely based on F. Scott Fitzgerald, the hot Jazz Age novelist who wrote "This Side of Paradise," "The Beautiful and Damned," "The Great Gatsby," "Tender Is the Night" and "The Last Tycoon," and his wife, Zelda. BroadwayWorld has a complete look at the show below!
This new musical with choreography by Tony Award Winner Andy Blankenbuehler and arrangements by Ron Melrose of Jersey Boys Fame, tells the story of a young, beautiful southern belle who meets the handsome, twenty-one year old author at a dance on July 4, 1917. Starring Broadway's Lauren Kennedy and Tony Award Winner Jarrod Emick, Zelda: An American Love Story is ultimately about the two lovers’ rise, their fall, and their almost divine desire to rise once more… together. With a score that nods to Porter and Gershwin and a book that is captivating until the final curtain, Zelda is an old-fashioned musical told in a completely new, contemporary way. See it at FRP first, before Broadway.
Presented by Van Winkle Law Firm and Altavista Wealth Management, Inc., Zelda: An American Love Story is onstage October 3 through October 28 at Playhouse Mainstage. Evening performances are Wednesday through Saturday at 8:00 pm and matinee performances are Wednesday, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays at 2:00 pm. Tickets to Zelda are $40 with discounts available for seniors, AAA members, military personnel, students and groups.
The Playhouse will host a special Audio Described matinee performance of the show for the sight-impaired patrons on Saturday, October 27. Tickets can be purchased, by calling The Playhouse box office at 828-693-0731, toll-free at 866-732-8008 or online at www.flatrockplayhouse.org. Flat Rock Playhouse Mainstage is located at 2661 Greenville Hwy, Flat Rock, NC.
