Rapp, Spanger and Cast of NYMF's Feeling Electric Perform Sep. 11 at Virgin Megastore in Union Square

This Sunday, September 11, the cast of the New York Musical Theatre Festival production of FEELING ELECTRIC will offer a free public performance of select musical numbers at the Virgin Megastore -- Union Square at 1:30 p.m.

With music by Tom Kitt and book and lyrics by Brian Yorkey (The Wedding Banquet), FEELING ELECTRIC stars Annaleigh Ashford, Joe Cassidy (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels), Anthony Rapp (Rent), Benjamin Schrader (Big River, nat'l tour) and Amy Spanger (Kiss Me, Kate; Chicago).

Darkly funny and brutally honest, this powerful new musical chronicles one family's personal battle to cure a mother (Spanger) of her long-term depression, with the controversial help of one hotshot young doctor (Rapp) who prescribes electric shock therapy as her last resort treatment.

This Virgin Megastore performance is free to the public.
