Di Pasqua's Revue, 'Notes on New York' Will Play at Metropolitan Room in October
By: Jordan Westfall Sep. 18, 2008
Award-winning singer/composer/lyricist Tim Di Pasqua brings his new musical theater revue to New York's Metropolitan Room, every Monday in October. NOTES ON NEW YORK is an exciting, and poignant ninety-minute song cycle about things seen and heard around this intoxicating city. Inspired by the life of Walt Whitman, who wrote about experiences he had witnessed, and by Irving Berlin's As Thousands Cheer, featuring songs based on headlines of the day, NOTES ON NEW YORK presents Tim at the piano, along with a cast of five, who are the "voices in his head," bringing his observations to life.
NOTES ON NEW YORK reflects everyday life and situations from people, as seen through the eyes of one captivated observer. As all New Yorkers know, with over eight million diverse people on one tiny island, there are many stories to be sung, and there is nothing "everyday" about any of them. From the subway evangelist to the skinny white girl on the bus; from the personal ads on a dating service to the big hairy man behind the bar, the city pulses with the grit, beauty and drama that only New Yorkhas to offer. You will not only become the captivated observer, yet will swear that your own story is being told. "Life is so theatrical; every day a totally new show, with starring and supporting roles changing every hour."
Third Eye Theatre Company is proud to present NOTES ON NEW YORK under the artistic direction of Michael Levesque; Tim Di Pasqua, musical director; Andrew Glant-Linden, director. For more information please visit www.thirdeyetheatreco.com
It will feature Vicky Devany, Tim Di Pasqua, Cheryl Monroe, Erick Pinnick, Lennie Watts, and Jennifer Zimmerman
