Barrington Stage Company, the award-winning theatre in downtown Pittsfield, MA, under the leadership of Julianne Boyd Artistic Director and TriStan Wilson Managing Director, presents the Bernstein/Comden/Green musical On the Town now through July 13 on the Boyd-Quinson Mainstage, 30 Union Street, Pittsfield. The press opening was last night, June 16 at 5pm. The show just held a pre show talk-back with Amanda Green and William Finn and you can check out photos from the event below!
On the Town is the story of Three Sailors on a 24-hour leave in New York City in 1944. Squeezed for time, they all manage to find love and incredible adventures in the Big Apple. On the Town features the first Broadway score by Bernstein, Comden and Green with such gems as "New York, New York," "I Can Cook Too," "Lonely Town" and "Some Other Time."
Written in less than 8 months following the May 1944 premiere of the Jerome Robbins ballet "Fancy Free", the musical comedy On the Town opened December 28, 1944, at the Adelphi Theatre with Betty Comden, Adolph Green, John Battles, Sono Osato, Cris Alexander, and Nancy Walker. The show was revived Off-Broadway with Harold Lang, Joe Bova and Pat Carroll in 1959 and on Broadway in 1971 (with Phyllis Newman, Donna McKechnie and Bernadette Peters) and 1998 (with Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Lea DeLaria). The 2008 NY City Encores! revival starred Tony Yazbeck, Leslie Kritzer and Justin Bohon. The 1949 MGM film starred Gene Kelly, Frank Sinatra, Jules Munshin, Betty Garrett, Ann Miller and Vera-Ellen.Photo Credit: Stephen Sorokoff
