Laguna Playhouse is thrilled to present the sixth show in its 97th season, the world premiere of Nathan Gunn FLYING SOLO, written and directed by Hershey Felder, with musical direction by Michael Bagby. Executive Director Ellen Richard comments, "What an honor to be presenting this world premiere of a new work by Hershey Felder with the incomparable Nathan Gunn." Adds Artistic Director Ann E. Wareham. "That voice! Our subscribers and audiences are going to enjoy the best of Broadway and more, with one of the great baritones of all time, right here on our Playhouse stage!" Nathan Gunn FLYING SOLO will begin previews on Wednesday, April 4; will open on Sunday, April 8 at 5:30pm and perform through Sunday, April 22, 2018 at the Laguna Playhouse, 606 Laguna Canyon Drive in Laguna Beach.

America's leading baritone Nathan Gunn sings selections from classic American musicals, contemporary songs and a little bit of opera fun in his personal story, FLYING SOLO. This "Sexiest Man Alive" (People Magazine) recounts how he became elder of his heritage, the Scottish Clan GUNN, and learned what life is really about is this world premiere, moving, musical journey.

But there's a whole lot more to this story about a boy who wants nothing more than to please his Scottish Dad as he becomes an elder of his heritage, the Scottish Clan GUNN, and who ends up realizing what life is really about. Written and directed in his signature style by Hershey Felder (Our Great Tchaikovsky, Gershwin, Bernstein, Berlin, Beethoven) Nathan Gunn, FLYING SOLO features the true story of one of America's greatest baritone voices!
