BE MORE CHILL's Joe Iconis Returns To Barrington Stage

Barrington Stage Company is welcoming back one of its most popular performers, Joe Iconis, in Joe Iconis and Family Take Over the Mainstage on Sunday, September 2 at 7:00pm.

Joe Iconis and his tribe of musical theatre misfits return to the Mainstage for a special one-night-only concert back by popular demand! These musical mavericks will make it clear why The New York Times calls Joe "the Future of Musical Theatre" with songs about anything and everything that make you laugh, cry, scream or drink. It's the perfect way to say goodbye to summer.

The evening will include performances by Liz Lark Brown (The Plant That Ate Dirty Socks), Harrison Chad (BSC The Black Suits), Alexandra Ferrara (ReWrite), Amanda Flynn (Wicked), Tom Jorgensen (Broadway Bounty Hunter band member), Ian Kagey (Hundred Days), Rachel Lee (Joe Iconis Christmas Extravaganza), Jeremy Morse (Waitress), Destinee Rea (Amélie), Rob Rokicki (The Lightning Thief), Philip Jackson Smith (Mozart in the Jungle), Cori Stolbun, (Be More Chill) Alexandra Tripp (Cuff Me: Fifty Shades of Grey Parody), Jason Veasey (BSC Broadway Bounty Hunter) and Jared Weiss (Search: Paul Clayton).

Joe Iconis is a writer and performer. The Original Cast Recording of his musical Be More Chill (NYC Signature Theater Summer 2018) has been streamed over 150 Million times. He is the author of Broadway Bounty Hunter, Bloodsong of Love, The Black Suits, ReWrite, Theatreworks USA’s The Plant That Ate Dirty Socks and We The People, and the currently in development Untitled Unauthorized Hunter S. Thompson Musical for La Jolla Playhouse and Love In Hate Nation.

Barrington Stage Company is a professional award-winning Equity regional theatre located in the heart of the Berkshires in Pittsfield, MA. It was co-founded in 1995 by Artistic Director Julianne Boyd and has a three-fold mission: to present top-notch, compelling work; to develop new plays and musicals; and to find fresh, bold ways of bringing new audiences into the theatre-especially young people. Barrington Stage garnered national attention in 2004 when it premiered William Finn and Rachel Sheinkin's musical hit The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, which later transferred to Broadway where it won two Tony Awards. In 2009, BSC premiered Mark St. Germain's Freud's Last Session, which later moved Off Broadway and played for two years. St. Germain's Becoming Dr. Ruth (which premiered at BSC as Dr. Ruth, All the Way in 2012) played Off Broadway at The Westside Theatre in 2013. BSC's all-time record-breaking musical On the Town was originally produced at BSC in 2013 before transferring to Broadway in 2014, where it was nominated for four Tony Awards including Best Musical Revival. In 2016, Barrington Stage swept the first annual Berkshire Theatre Awards by winning 20 out of the 25 awards. In 2016, BSC produced three World Premieres: Presto Change-O, Broadway Bounty Hunter and American Son, the last of which won the Laurents/Hatcher Award for Best New Play. In 2017, BSC won the Best of the Berkshires Readers' Choice for Best Live Theatre and produced the much-lauded revival of Stephen Sondheim and George Furth's Company, starring Aaron Tveit.
