If any of you are coming to Atlanta over the next month you should, indeed, see THE PROM. You should also see Aurora Theatre/Theatrical Outfit production of IN THE HEIGHTS, which is maybe the greatest production of that show I have ever seen (and that includes the original Broadway production and the National Tour). It’s running through mid-September. Stunning. Atlanta is a surprisingly vibrant MT town-- this summer there was a jaw-dropping, site-immersive production of MISS SAIGON (you were outdoors in the beautiful town of Serenbe, and the production involved real Army trucks, cars and…yes…an actual helicopter that landed near the action); Actors Express did a nice job with COMPANY. Lots of great performers here-- many of them permanent residents. We just delivered our MT gal to the freshman year of her BFA program, so I am hoping that Atlanta continues to grow its MT reputation and opportunities. Maybe she’ll be back…
