Fingers Crossed Productions has announced that David Sabella-Mills (Chicago), Stephanie D'Abruzzo (Avenue Q), and Capathia Jenkins (Martin Short: Fame Becomes Me) will be joiningthe cast of Kiss And Makeup, a musical comedy farce that will play as part of the 11th annual New York International Fringe Festival – FringeNYC.   Performances will be held at the Lucille Lortel Theatre, Monday, August 20th at 6pm, Wednesday, August 22, at 7pm, Thursday, August 23 at 10:45pm, Friday, August 24th at 1:00pm, and Saturday, August 25th at 2:30pm.   The Lucille Lortel Theatre is located at 121 Christopher Street (Bleecker & Hudson). 

"Kiss and Makeup is a musical farce that takes place on stage and off at The Fleur Community Theatre, where the rag-tag cast of a French farce learns that the President of The United States is attending their premiere performance that very night.   The news throws the leading lady into a tailspin from which she never recovers, forcing the determined leading man to "go on with the show" by playing both the male and female leads," state press materials.

On Broadway David Sabella-Mills has co-starred in the musical Chicago, with Bebe Neuwirth, Ann Reinking and Joel Grey.   Stephanie D'Abruzzo is best known for originating the roles of both Kate Monster and Lucy the Slut in the Broadway musical, Avenue Q, for which she received a nomination for the 2004 Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical.  In addition to Capathia Jenkins' turn in the Broadway hit Martin Short: Fame Becomes Me, she has also starred in Broadway productions of Caroline, Or Change, The Civil War, and Bacharach and David's The Look of Love

 

The cast also features Jeanne Tinker, Stanton Garr and Robert Rokicki.

 

This will be the New York Premiere of Kiss and Makeup.  The creative team is: Kevin Hammonds, Book and Lyrics; Mark Weiser, Music and Lyrics, Kevin Hammonds; Director/ Choreographer; Robin Mishik-Jett, Producer, and Danielle Saks, Stage Manager.
