Tammany Hall will host the new musical, Broken Moments: A Bar Musical, officially opening tonight, Feb. 14 in New York.
Written and directed by Leo Rodriguez, with arrangements by Ben P. Harrell, the equity approved showcase is a limited engagement running through March 1. Shows start at 8:30pm on Friday and Saturday evenings.
The cast includes Emily Battles as Chelsea, Benjamin Horen as Adam, Karen Schleifer as Nicole, Jasmine Spiess as Josie, Leo Rodriguez as Leo, Mike Longo as Carlos, Jeffrey Aiken as Doug, Noah Fleischaker as Robert, Elizabeth Pryce Davies as Christa, Sean Griffin as Luke, John Matson as Richard, Nathan Riehl as Edward, and Katherine Sulenski as Sissy.
The show is performed in a bar setting so that the audience is part of the action and surrounded by the harmonies and music. Broken Moments is the name of a dive bar owned by the recently deceased James Monroh. On this night the regulars (each arch-typed bar characters) are gathering to pay their respects the best way they know how. During this wake/reading of the will - we find out some of their underlying drama. We also experience three brothers celebrating the youngest's 21st birthday and we catch the end of a drunken bachelorette party. All three groups intertwine their dialogue, action and music to create an experience never to be forgotten.
Other members of the creative team include Becky Randazzo as producer and Dave Delzio and Lisa Taibi as associate producers.
