Mark Indelicato - best known as "Justin Suarez" on ABC-TV's UGLY BETTY - read Susanna Reich's book - José! Born to Dance, on Saturday, January 24th at 2:00pm as part of Making Books Sing Day at the Barnes & Noble in Greenwich Village (396 6th Avenue - at 8th Street). Additionally, following the reading, there was a "sneak peek" of Making Books Sing's new musical - the World-Premiere family musical JOSÉ LIMÓN: THE MAKING OF AN ARTIST, with star Diego Rodriguez. BroadwayWorld's cameras were there to spend the day with Mark and the gang!
JOSÉ LIMÓN: THE MAKING OF AN ARTIST has Book & Lyrics by Barbara Zinn Krieger and Music by Charles Greenberg, with performances set for the Lovinger Theatre at Lehman College in The Bronx; Symphony Space in Manhattan; the Goldstein Theatre at Kingsborough Community College in Brooklyn; and Stanford Lively Arts in Stanford, CA. Brad Malow directs, with choreography by Eric Jackson Bradley.
Based on an unfinished memoir by the famed dancer and choreographer Jose Limon - JOSÉ LIMÓN: THE MAKING OF AN ARTIST tells his story of struggle and survival through a combination of music, dance and theatre. It examines his life from his exodus with his family to the United States at age 5 during the Mexican Civil War, through his struggle to find an artistic outlet and finally to his triumph as one of the greatest male dancers/choreographers of all time.
