Sound Bites 3.0 Festival 10 Musicals – One Night Only!

Soundbites 3.0Friend What Are You Waiting For?

I will be performing in the new musical comedy WE HAVE APPLES as the Nurse January 18th 7 pm 47th Street Theater! It’s a 10-minute showcase that will be sure to please.  Hope you can make it!

Jane, a quirky 18-year-old writer, has no choice but to admit herself to a psychiatric hospital when her depression (personified by a female actor) becomes more than she can handle on her own. Bored with the cheesy and condescending group sessions, Jane and another talented patient, Jack, start a writing group. Tension heightens between staff and patients and corruption and mistreatment in the ward start to make everyone wonder: who is really sane here after all?

The ten finalists, listed in alphabetical order, featured at this year’s Sound Bites are…

A Cappella Love

A Cappella Love, performed by eight triple-threat singers-actors-dancers (four men, four women) without instrumental accompaniment, is a new musical that, through song, dance, and comedy, explores the universal experiences of falling in, being in, and stumbling out of – what else? – love. The romance! The passion! The brazen innuendo…all a cappella!

music by Nelson Kole, lyrics by Mark Browning Milner, and book by Mark Browning Milner, Lorrie Kole, and Nelson Kole

music by Helen Park, lyrics by Christyn Budzyna, and book by Charles Cohen
