The "Spring & Summer" Cabaret does not include songs from Spring Awakening itself, which is headed for a Broadway revival this September. According to production notes, "Audiences can expect to hear a variety of different musical styles and some behind-the-scenes anecdotes from the actors' time with the show."
Joining them are actors from this fall's revival, including Katie Boeck (Voice of Wendla), Alex Boniello (Voice of Moritz), Daniel Durant (Moritz), Sandra Mae Frank (Wendla), Kathryn Gallagher (Voice of Martha), Sean Grandillo (Voice of Otto), Austin McKenzie (Melchior), Ali Stroker (Anna) and Alexandra Winter (Gretl).
Charity Wicks is musical director. Shoshana Feinstein is producer.
Lupita Nyong'o, Katrina Lenk, Jelani Alladin, and more were on hand to celebrate the October 31 opening night of Michael R. Jackson and Anna K. Jacobs' new musical.
