Synopsis Another entrant in
the musical drama category based on an epic novel, this time around
Charles Dickens' classic Tale of Two Cities The Road to
Broadway We first listed A Tale
of Two Cities as possibly coming to Broadway way back in
September, 2002. Even by then the new adaptation of the classic had
been kicking around for a couple of years, first performed in the
New York area at the
Nyack Seaport
Center in June 2000. We first picked it up as "maybe" when the
concept album was recorded in 2002. Followed by workshops and
presentations to pique backer curiosity in 2004, the finished show
was to premiere at the
Chicago
Theatre in February, then April, 2006
But not so fast. Director David H Bell left the show July 2005 in
the middle of a major workshop in New York. The Chicago run was
scratched and calls for a new director turned up Michael Donald
Edwards. Likely plans are for there to be a late summer, early fall
out-of-town tryout before the production comes to New York |
