Receiving its New York premiere is the hilarious and irreverent new film noir musical parody, Adrift in Macao with book and lyrics by Christopher Durang (Sister Mary Ignatius Explains It All For You, The Marriage of Bette and Boo) and music by Peter Melnick. Mixing together farce, camp, and tongue-in-cheek wit, Adrift in Macao spins the tale of five quirky characters stranded in a Casablanca-like locale in the Far East. Complete with intrigue, silliness and a playfully melodic score, it is the newest work from a gifted theater composer and one of America's funniest playwrights.
Directed by Sheryl Kaller with choreography by Christopher Gattelli, the seven-member cast features Sunset Boulevard Tony® nominee Alan Campbell, Will Swenson (Brooklyn, Lestat), Barrymore winners Rachel de Benedet (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Nine), Orville Mendoza (Pacific Overtures) and Michelle Ragusa (Urinetown, Ragtime), Jonathan Rayson (Little Shop of Horrors) and Elisa Van Duyne (42nd Street).

Know Before You Go
Both romantic and scary, The Phantom of the Opera is a thrilling night of theater with grand emotions.
Andrew Lloyd Webber’s score, with its beloved signature song “Music of the Night,” sets the mood,
but you may also find yourself humming the gorgeous period costumes and simple yet grand sets
(even the famous chandelier, which probably falls slower than you’d expect, is a thrill).
