[GLOSS News] MCCLV Plans New Theater Company

[GLOSS]

On Friday, May 16th and Saturday, May 17th at 8 PM, MCCLV will
present an evening of entertainment at their new space at 930
North 4th Street to introduce the community to their plans for a
new theater company.

The company is currently planning on doing two major productions a
year, as well as evenings of one-acts, performance art, scenes &
monologues, and musical revues.

May 16 & 17 will include scenes from:

-Fall 2008 musical comedy production of "The Big Voice: God or
Merman" - Book by Jim Brochu, Music & Lyrics by Steve Schalchlin.
A chamber musical about growing up gay and religious, long-term
gay relationships, AIDS, and the spiritual and healing powers of
show biz;

-Winter 2009 production of "Their Town" by Paula Martinac. A
gay-themed comedy on gay marriage rights inspired by the classic
"Our Town";

-Fall 2009 production of the musical "Godspell" by Stephen
Schwartz & John-Michael Tebelak. Set in a trendy gay neighborhood
with a GLBTA cast.

-It will also include monologues, musical numbers, and staged
readings - setting a precedent for future evenings of performance
art/readings/monologues of original material by artists based on
their personal life experiences.

THERE WILL BE A SUGGESTED DONATION OF $10 AT THE DOOR.

The funds raised by these performances will be used to launch the
upcoming performances of the MCCLV theater company.
