Director Kevin Connors (also the Artistic Director of MTC) has worked wonders adapting big Broadway shows to fit, literally and artistically, into his intimate theatre space, which has the audience on three sides of a postage stamp stage. His GYPSY was superb, as he understood that this is essentially a mother-daughter drama; and he created what would seem the impossible in such a space with a beautiful production of RAGTIME. He has done the same with others.
The performance will feature the songs of Leiber and Stoller, and 40 of the greatest songs of the past century, including ‘Stand by Me’ and ‘Jailhouse Rock.’
