Selections from Savage's memoir will be read at the event and a sneak preview of the musical will be performed by special guests.... Scott Elliott will direct the upcoming world premiere run of The Kid Off-Broadway this spring on the mainstage. The musical was recently honored with the 2009 BMI Foundation Jerry Bock Award for Best New Musical. |
At the very least, it sounds like interesting source material...
Later days
