Theater Work Fall 2011

So, gentle reader, my Fall is shaping up quite nicely as I have committed to some terrific theater projects.  First--I am the music director for the upcoming production of A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum--one of my favorite shows (I played Psuedolus in a fast, fun production in Lawrence years ago and it is still one of my favorite theater memories).  This production will be at the new Forum Theater opening soon.  Forum opens on October 14 and runs for 3 weeks.

The bigger news is that the producers at the Forum Theater approached me early in the summer about composing the music (and writing the lyrics) for a new version of A Christmas Carol.  I am pleased with how the score is turning out and am excited to present the entire show for a read-through audience this weekend.  The book has been written by local author Conrad Jestmore and it has been an absolute joy working with him and Kathy Page-Hauptman as we prepare this piece for a November opening and run.

Now that I've got this blog under my "real" Gmail account, I promise to post more often!

Pax,

Paul
