NYC MATINEE CABARET: IMPRESARIO NOW! AT THE BEECHMAN - 3PM TODAY
Impresario Now! 90% Theater, 90% Musicale, Very Mozart Most of the Time will be presented at THE WEST BANK CAFE/LAURIE BEECHMAN THEATRE (407 West 42nd Street, NYC - 212-695-6909) on Saturdays, May 11th & 18th at 3:00 pm. The score is a very "now" version of Mozart's original 1786 comic songspiel. The classic four tunes are sing in really good English, and in this unique version, Mozart's rarely seen non-singing characters morph into a troupe of singers vying for roles by auditioning with a selection of Mozart's greatest hits. Dueling sopranos, battling baritones, a libidinous backer and one very broke producer. The same old story, brand new. You'll meet, and learn to love and loathe, Vinnie Birdwhistle, Heartbroken Tenor; sopranos Isolde Goldentrill and Swanhilda Silverspiel - one on the way up, one on the way out; Drusilla Kronensprech, a Mezzo with a Method, as well as Donaldo Largesse Angelgelt, Swifty Frank, and his Faithless Companion Buddenbrooks Buff, Fredrich Goldentrill - Barihunk Trouble Incarnate - and Tristana Straight, all weird in their own way. You won't see Wolftreudle Birdwhistle and you'll find out why. Laughs probable, applause compulsory. There is a $15 cover plus a $15 food/drink minimum.
