Discribed as “hilarious, heartbreaking and utterly unique, Falsettos is a contemporary musical about family, relationships, bar mitzvahs, baseball and AIDS. When Marvin leaves his wife Trina and son Jason to be with his lover Whizzer, tempers flare, problems escalate and everyone learns to grow up.”
If you are unfamiliar with this beloved musical, check out this montage from 2016 Broadway revival pro-shot. This production starred Christian Borle (Marvin), Stephanie J. Block (Trina), Brandon Uranowitz (Mendel), Andrew Rannells (Whizzer), Tracy Thomas (Dr. Charlotte), Betsy Wolfe (Cordelia) and Anthony Rosenthal (Jason). The original 1992 Broadway production starred Michael Rupert (Marvin), Barbara Walsh (Trina), Chip Zien (Mendel), Stephen Bogardus (Whizzer), Charlotte McRae (Dr. Charlotte), Carolee Carmello (Cordelia) and Johnathan Kaplan (Jason).
Help us pay our pit musicians (i.e. "Teeny Tiny Band")
Despite our company's small size and relatively young history, it is an important aspect of our mission to provide income opportunities to artists.
We have been wanting to expand our live musicians from just piano/keyboard to a full orchestra since our inception, and we have a goal of producing a large musical with a full-scale professional orchestra within the next few years.
'Falsettos' asks for four musicians: Piano, Synthesizer, Percussion and Reed. These players must be very adept at their craft. To help us pay these amazing musicians something in the ballpark of what their time and talent is worth, we turn to the arts-supporting public for help.
Please consider contributing a little something (or a large something!) to our GoFundMe "Sponsor Our Pit Musicians" drive.
Thank you so much for helping us to fulfill our mission!
