HOTLINE MEMBER CABARET EVENT TODAY IN NEW YORK STATE: FORT SALEM THEATER INAUGURATES ITS SUMMER SEASON WITH YESTON & KOPIT'S PHANTOM

HOTLINE MEMBER CABARET EVENT TODAY IN NEW YORK STATE: FORT SALEM THEATER INAUGURATES ITS SUMMER SEASON WITH YESTON & KOPIT'S PHANTOM AT 2:00 PM

The MAINSTAGE AT FORT SALEM THEATER (11 East Broadway, Salem, NY - 518-854-9200) is delighted to open its summer Mainstage season with the Rose Center Theater production of Tony winners Arthur Kopit and Maury Yeston's romantic musical, Phantom, running one weekend only, Friday & Saturday, June 20th & 21st at 8:00 pm and Sunday, June 22nd at 2:00 pm. Fort Salem's Phantom is directed by part-time Salem resident Tim Nelson, artistic director at The Rose Center Theater in Westminster, California. Shortly after winning their Tony Award for Nine, Best Musical of 1982, librettist Arthur Kopit and songwriter Maury Yeston adapted Gaston Leroux's 1910 novel, Phantom of the Opera, into a Broadway-style musical. Just as their producers set out to announce plans for a Broadway opening, they were ambushed by British composer Andrew Lloyd Webber, fresh and financially fortified by the success of Cats, who produced his own version, Phantom of the Opera, first in London and then in New York. Kopit and Yeston lost both their investors and their interest in the project until Kopit turned the show, without songs, into a four-part miniseries for NBC. Call for cover/minimum information.
