BROOKLYN COLLEGE OPERA THEATER PRESENTS

BROOKLYN BABY!

by John Musto/Mark Campbell, George/Ira Gershwin, Kurt Weill/Ira Gerswhin, Mel Brooks, Harry Warren

Fully Staged Work

A show within a show: John Musto’s “Late the Same Evening” characters go to a musical and get more than they bargained for: a newly created review featuring music by some of Brooklyn’s greatest creative minds (The Gershwin brothers, Mel Brooks, and Harry Warren) spoofing the current political climate: complete with a female bachelorette president, a beauty pageant with all Russian contestants, a women’s march protestor, and a final message that maybe, just maybe women will one day be treated equally, not only under the law, but also in our hearts and minds.

Director: Matthew Patrick Morris
