ReVision Theatre a professional theatre company located in Asbury Park, NJ is pleased to announce [under]eXposed a new music series that is designed to expose audiences to the newest and brightest composers and lyricists of musical theatre.
[under]eXposed is the brainchild of
David Leidholdt, Producing Artsitic Director of ReVision Theatre who states, "After the success of our Readings from Asbury Park series and original works of Kingdom, The Bikinis and the up coming Break-up Notebook, we realized that our audiences were interested and appreciative of new works. In New York there are many venues to showcase new composers but that's not always so in the regional world. It is more challenging to find ways to introduce audiences to them. Luckily for ReVision Theatre we have great venues for music and a diverse and accepting audience".
The kick-off performance in the [under]eXposed music series will feature the fabulous
Annie Golden, (who many of you may remember from the world premiere of The Bikinis last summer). Annie will perform an original piece that she composed. Also featured are composer/lyricists,
Adam Gown (Ordinary Days, Roundabout Theatre),
Joe Iconis (Things To Ruin),
Scott Alan (CD's Dreaming Wide Awake and Keys: The Music of
Scott Alan), Brett Kristofferson (MAC and Bistro Award Winner) and
Bobby Cronin (Daybreak). All of these artists have all been showcased in many cabaret and concert venues both in New York City and abroad.
Scheduled to perform at the premiere of [under]eXposed are,
Annie Golden (ReVision Theatre: The Bikinis, Broadway: Hair, The Full Monty, Xanadu),
Hannah Shankman (ReVison Theatre Hair, Broadway: Hair)
Jenn Furman (Broadway: Wicked),
Julia Arazi (ReVision Theatre: Hair), William Coyne (ReVision Theatre Funny Girl), Briana Davis (ReVision Theatre Tommy), Angie Shultz (MAC Nominated), Brett Colby (ReVision Theatre: The Rocky Horror Show)
Spiro Galiatsatos (ReVision Theatre: Hair, The Full Monty),
Michael Murray (1812) and Brett Teresa. Additional performers to be announced at later date. *Please note performers subject to change.
Leidholdt continues, "It's always exciting for me introduce a new exciting piece of theatre or music to a new audience, maybe find that next
Stephen Sondheim and be the theatre to first showcase that talent. It is so important to us as a professional theatre company to foster these artists and hopefully create exciting new opportunities and experiences for all".
