broadway deconstructed

Tomorrow night:

DECONSTRUCTING BROADWAY
COMES TO CHICAGO
Seth Rudetsky's bringing his own private video and audio collection to show you how to differentiate between what’s vocally amazing (Patti LuPone in EVITA) and what’s a vocal travesty (Madonna singing the same material). Gavin Creel, Betty Buckley, The Mamas and the Papas, Carly Simon, The Pajama Game, Melba Moore…ALL will be deconstructed. Video highlights (lowlights?) include the mercifully short-lived BRADY BUNCH VARIETY HOUR and Cher singing all the roles in WEST SIDE STORY. Believe or not, you’ll see it!


Friday Oct 8th and Saturday Oct 9th (sold out!) at 8PM
The Music Theatre Company Space
1850 Green Bay Road
Highland Park, IL 60035

I am a big fan of Seth and all his works (Playbill, Sirius XM radio, the really awesome Tony's opening number he wrote that included Rosie O'Donnell, Betty Buckley, Patti LuPone and Jennifer Holliday, etc etc) and so I am looking forward to seeing this, even though I have NO IDEA where "The Music Theatre Company Space" happens to be.
