Stephen Sondheim's Cabaret Revue

Produced by Doug Hill
Directed by Anne Lucas

Musical Direction by Betty Lautner

Marblehead Little Theatre’s Side-By-Side-By-Sondheim, a tribute to composer and lyricist Stephen Sondheim, came to 12 School Street August 6-8 and 13-15, 2010. Show times at 8 p.m. with an additional show on both Sundays at 2 p.m.

Director Anne Lucas, producer Doug Hill, and music director Betty Lautner, all of Marblehead, assembled a cast of lively and talented performers that will explore Sondheim’s upbeat and lyrically complex work before 1976. In the spirit of MLT’s Jacques Brel revue, which played to sold out crowds last year, Side-By-Side-By-Sondheim will honor the composer, who turned 80 years old this year, by presenting his most popular and accessible songs, many written with others including Leonard Bernstein, Jules Stein, and Richard Rodgers. Audiences will enjoy his best, including songs from West Side Story, Gypsy, Follies, Company, Anyone Can Whistle, and more!

Marblehead Little Theatre is pleased to welcome the return of Director Steve Black, Music Director Lianne Goodwin and Choreographer Lara Finn to the Firehouse for this Summer's production of Hairspray.

Hairspray - a musical with music by Marc Shaiman, lyrics by Scott Wittman and Shaiman and a book by Mark O'Donnell and Thomas Meehan, based on the 1988 John Waters film Hairspray. The songs include 1960s-style dance music and "downtown" rhythm and blues. In 1962 Baltimore, Maryland, teenager Tracy Turnblad's dream is to dance on The Corny Collins Show, a local TV dance program based on the real-life Buddy Deane Show. When Tracy wins a role on the show, she becomes a celebrity overnight. She then launches a campaign to integrate the show. Hairspray is a social commentary on the injustices of parts of American society in the 1960s.  The musical's original Broadway production opened on August 15, 2002and won eight Tony Award.
