From the 100th performance of Gone Missing at the Barrow Street Theatre this past Friday October 5. It appears as if the birthday cake has also
gone missing!
Gone Missing is produced Off Broadway by Scott
Morfee and Tom
Wirtshafter in association with The Civilians. Written and directed
by Steven Cosson with additional text by Peter Morris, and featuring music and
lyrics by Michael
Friedman, Gone Missing
began performances on June 14 and became one of the best reviewed shows of the
year.
Marking The Civilians'
commercial Off Broadway debut, Gone
Missing, the wry and whimsical documentary musical of things gone
missing, is now playing at the Barrow Street Theatre through January 6,
2008. "Gone Missing
is crafted from company interviews with real-life New Yorkers about things gone
missing: keys, IDs, a Gucci pump...or one's mind. Since its initial
performance, just after September 11, 2001, Gone Missing has continued to morph
into its current incarnation, set against Mr. Friedman's score, which
incorporates salsa, ballads, operetta and tuneful pop," explain press
notes.
Gone Missing features choreography by Jim
Augustine, set design by Takeshi Kata, costume design by Sarah Beers, lighting
design by Thomas Dunn and sound design by Ken Travis.
The Barrow Street Theatre
is located at 27 Barrow Street
at 7th Avenue South
