Women’s Theater Company Presents The Musical of Musicals (The Musical)

originally published: 03/24/2017

(PARSIPPANY, NJ) -- The Women’s Theater Company, a professional theater company in Parsippany, NJ, presents Musical of Musicals (The Musical), written by Joanne Bogart and Eric Rockwell. Performances of this hilarious satire of musical theatre run March 24 -April 2 at The Parsippany Playhouse.

One story becomes five delightful musicals, each written in the distinctive style of a different master of the form, from Rodgers and Hammerstein to Stephen Sondheim.   The basic plot:  June is an ingenue who can’t pay the rent and is threatened by her evil landlord.   Will the handsome leading man come to the rescue?  The variations are:  a Rodgers & Hammerstein version (set in Kansas in August, complete with a dream ballet), a Sondheim version (featuring the landlord as a tortured artistic genius who slashes the throats of his tenants in revenge for not appreciating his work), a Jerry Herman version; an Andrew Lloyd Webber version and a Kander & Ebb version set in a speakeasy in Chicago).

The Musical of Musicals (The Musical), stars Patricia Durante, Scott McGowan, Jenna Ravenda, Zach Mazouat.  Producing Artistic Director Barbara Krajkowski, Director/Choreographer Lauren Moran Mills, Musical Director Deborah Martin.

The productions runs March 24-April 2 Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00pm and Sundays at 3:00pm. Tickets are $25 for adults and $20 for seniors. To purchase tickets online please visit www.womenstheater.org or call 973 335 3038.
