Description
“Shall we dance?” asks the King of Mrs. Anna in the beloved musical “The King and I”. The audience is swept away with the orchestra swelling as we watch Mrs. Anna’s dress sweep across the floor. Then there is Nellie Forbush taking a full shower onstage in “South Pacific”, the first time in musical theater history anything like that had been attempted, and it won over the audience. Those are just two of the most iconic scenes from those beloved Rodgers and Hammerstein shows.
This show will feature songs from nearly all of their shows, mostly familiar but some not so familiar. While their ballads are most often sung, SRT will also offer some fun comic numbers as well!
The audience will truly enjoy “Oklahoma”, “South Pacific”, “The King and I”, “The Sound of Music” and more sung by a cast of three singers and a trio of incredible musicians. Nate Hackmann, direct from Broadway's "Back to the Future", has a glorious baritone-tenor voice that soars through “Soliloquy” from “Carousel” and “Younger than Springtime” from “South Pacific”. Crystal Kellogg, direct from Broadway, gloriously sang the role of Julie Jordan in the musical “Carousel” produced and directed by Michael Pizzi, the founder of MPZ Productions.. Crystal’s lovely soprano will captivate you in songs such as "The Gentleman is a Dope" and “The Sound of Music” from that very show. Crystal has performed often on Broadway and throughout the country in many leading roles. She and Nate also perform some incredible and iconic duets from “Cinderella”, “Carousel”, “The King and I” and many others. Michael Pizzi will join them for several numbers, singing ballads and comic numbers.
