Happy 2012!
The Addams Family US Tour – The tour continues to pack ‘em in across the US and Canada. Here’s a taste of what Toronto’s Globe and Mail had to say: “…a whole lot of show-stopping tunes with laugh-out-loud lyrics.” Wow!!!
The “Family” opens a brand new production in Sao Paulo, Brazil in February. In Portuguese yet! Then, a new production in Sweden, an 18-month tour of Australia that kicks off in March of 2013 and then on to Europe and Asia. More details as we have them.
Big Fish – We’re doing a 4-week workshop in New York City under the direction of Susan Stroman mid-March through mid-April. After that, announcements will be made about our out of town city and then, fingers crossed (!), Broadway in 2013.
Andrew’s on the road – I head to Vegas in January to do a little clean up on Peepshow – starting it’s 4th sexy year in March – and then off to Australia to cast “Addams” at the end of the month. Then, it’s off to San Francisco in February to meet on a new project (soon to be announced). Finally, I leave for Sao Paulo at the end of February to see the new production and then a little R&R in Rio and Buenos Aires. ¡Adios, Nueva York!
A Little Princess – Music Theater International (MTI) begins licensing the show this month. It’s available for YOU to produce! Also, there’s a strong possibility of future commercial life. Stay tuned!
The Wild Party – Can someone say revival? Quite possibly… Details to follow.
Personal news – I continue my fitness regimen and on May 12th am participating in an event called Tough Mudder. It’s an 11-mile, 20 obstacle, military-style obstacle course. I’m on a team called “Angry Pandas”. I’m training for this event very seriously so that I can climb a rope, scale a wall, and push through the mud on my elbows. What a fun way to spend a Saturday!
Seminary – Halfway through my first year in seminary on the way to becoming an Interfaith minister. It’s been a blessed journey so far. I hope to be a minister who writes musicals and fights Ninjas. Wish me luck!
