Have you ever wondered how Broadway became a theatrical institution? How the Great White Way became the epitome of dramatic and musical bliss? Well, the Wagner-Iovanna Studio Productions (WISP) has created an original innovative answer in a musical revue “The Birth of Broadway: Mozart 2 Miranda" as a delightful sampler of treats covering more than two centuries of musical history and tradition.
For the weekend of Friday, August 11 to Sunday August 12, you will be enchanted by a fascinating parade of scenes from both musical theatre and opera, using the music, dance and scenery that marked the legacy. Highlighting Bizet to Hammerstein, Puccini to Sondheim, Verdi to Fosse, and so much more, you will be entertained by this unique musical journey.
These marvelous memories will be brought to you by newly minted Shoreline talent as well as professional Broadway and Opera performers. Cabaret seating is offered so you are invited to bring food and drink to your table. Performances will be at The Old Stone Church, 251 Main Street, East Haven. For tickets ($30, ages 10 and under $25) call WISP at 203-494-1633 or online at www.buy.tututix.com/wisp. Shows are at 7 p.m. Friday and 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
Watch WISP’s salute to more than 200 years of Broadway history right before your eyes, bringing Times Square right to your doorstep. Be a tourist in your own hometown thanks to the talented performers of all ages under WISP’s careful nurturing and care.
