The Wild Party
Music, Book, and Lyrics by Andrew Lippa
Directed by Stephen M. Genovese Choreographed by Brenda Didier
Music Directed by A. Scott Williams Produced by Thomas J. Samorian
Played at Stage Left Theatre on
July 14, 2005 through August 13, 2005.
Adapted from a book-length poem written in and about the Roaring
Twenties, this CHICAGO PREMIERE production of THE WILD PARTY
by Andrew Lippa tells the story of one wild evening in the Manhattan
apartment shared by Queenie and Burrs, a vaudeville dancer and a
vaudeville clown.
An award-winning score by Andrew Lippa provides excitement and drive
for this tale of passions out of control. Capturing the sound of a bygone
era with a nod to the present one, he makes us realize that moral
decadence is not only limited to our past.
"No smoke and mirrors here; just pure talent"
--Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun-Times (Highly Recommended)
"A sexy, sweaty, gloriously disorienting voyage"
--Kerry Reid, Chicago Tribune (Highly Recommended)
"A jazzy evening that makes the summer heat worthwhile"
--Kay Daly, Time Out Chicago (Top Ten of 2005)
"This is one party that shouldn't be missed"
--JenniferVanasco, Chicago Reader (Critic's Choice)
"The Wild Party is Off-Loop Theatre at its best"
--Jonathan Abarbanel, Windy City Times (One of Best of 2005)
"Amazingly accomplished"
--John Olson, TalkinBroadway.com
"Sings and dances with verve and manic energy"
--Tom Williams, ChicagoCritic.com (Recommended)
