NYU Productions

<p>Alwaysamom,</p>

<p>I'm not sure if I have the right person or not. I believe the young man I spoke of has the initials F.M. and I can't remember his last name so I couldn't tell you his third initial. There were two young men in her group at Strasberg who really stood out. I honestly don't know the other one's name, and I should, as he is in her production company. He had dark hair and a voice that was absolutely stunning. Obviously, since Susan's D was involved, Simon very well could have been from another studio. I believe my D's friend could possibly have been Judas, but once again, am not positive. </p>

<p>Still wish I had been able to see it as I love that JCS; just hard to justify a trip to NYC when D is in Buenos Aires.</p>

<p>Theatredivasmom,</p>

<p>Your son's friend, F. M. H. played Judas and is from Strasberg Studio. He is very talented and played Cinderella's Prince in the fall GAP show of Into the Woods. I believe he will be doing CAP21 studio next year (as you know you can apply to another studio after two years of primary studio). </p>

<p>AlwaysAMom, thanks for your kind and supportive feedback.</p>

<p>Soozievt,</p>

<p>You have the right person, thank you for the final initial. I didn't know he was going to go over to CAP21, but am not at all surprised based on his talent and I believe that is the path he wishes to pursue. </p>

<p>Still wishing I could have seen JCS.....</p>

<p>Thanks for the reviews, something is better than nothing :)</p>

<p>CAP's season:</p>

<p>All Cap show - Urinetown
3rd year show - TBA
2nd yer show - The Boys From Syracuse</p>

<p>theatreguy, thanks for the info!</p>

<p>ah...urinetown! love that. does cap have a website?</p>

<p>Cap has a website but Urinteown is not up on it yet. The site is <a href="http://www.cap21.org%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.cap21.org&lt;/a>. There are also mainstage shows that have been announced....dramas and one musical....the musical is a brand new one and will be work-shopped in the fall semester and produced in February.</p>

<p>Mainstage:</p>

<p>Galileo (Brecht)
Saint Joan (George Bernard Shaw)
Only Children (new musical by Graduate Musical Theater Writing alums Michael R. Jackson and Rachel Peters
The Visit (Friedrich Durenmatt)
I Have Loved Strangers (Ann Washburn)</p>

<p>I heard 3rd year Cappies are doing Into the Woods. I thought they'd do something different since it was a Gap show last year...</p>

<p>Really? Are you sure? My D has not mentioned that and I wonder if she knows. I will ask her. I recall her hearing a rumor of a different show perhaps. But yeah, ITW was a GAP show last year and she was the MD for it. She already has been in this musical before as Little Red. A few kids (Cinderella, Grandma, a stepsister off the top of my head) from their year at CAP21 were in the GAP production if I recall. However, many in that production were from older CAP21 years or other studios, so maybe they feel it doesn't overlap that much for the actual students involved in each production. Well, I'll wait to hear!</p>

<p>rossji is right. Cap is indeed doing ITW. It goes up Feb. 14-17, 22-24. Urinetown is Oct. 25-28, Nov 2-4. Also The Boys from Syracuse Apr. 3-6, 11-13. Tickets should go on sale later this week.</p>

<p>By now, my D likely has heard as well (and today is the first day of classes also). ITW has been one of her favorite musicals of all time. I haven't spoken to her since I read about it from RossJi's post. I knew of the other shows.</p>

<p>Can you tell me how to get tickets for Urinetown? Do you know when they become available? I think there is usually limited seating?</p>

<p>jashner,</p>

<p>Here's a link to Ovation, where you can order online. Do it quickly! :)</p>

<p>OK - just ordered my tix online. But my d won't even be in the show; she totally lost her voice and auditions are this week! GAAHH!! (She was supposed to sing for her new voice teacher today, and as of last night, she could only whisper).
What timing..... :(</p>

<p>OK - so I have 5 tickets for the Oct. 27 matinee of Urinetown at 3 p.m. - I only need 2. Anyone need any tix for that date/time? Or better yet, willing to trade me for 2 Friday night tix? I don't know if they're sold out yet, but I know they will be soon. Every other show sells out, so....</p>

<p>rossji-</p>

<p>I won't be much help to you - </p>

<p>but I have 2 tickets for Saturday October 28th - EVENING performance - that I cannot use. (WE cannot make it to NYC from OR - and our daughter is not in the show - didn't try out....)</p>

<p>Any takers?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>janenw</p>

<p>Hi Jane! Wish I could help you out. The reason I wanted to trade for Friday is that's the only day my daughter doesn't work; she works 12-8 on Sat. and 12-6 on Sunday and I wanted her to see it with me. (I originally got the Sat matinee because of my parents) I'm sure you'll be able to get rid of them - I would think Sat night tix are more of a premium than the matinee! Good luck!</p>

<p>OK - now I exchanged my 5 tix for Friday night (Urinetown at CAP21); I still have 3 available for anyone who wants to buy them. I will be there around 7:30 Friday night if anyone needs tickets; I know it's sold out Friday night. If you're interested, please let me know or PM me. Thx!</p>

<p>Just atttended the Tisch Salute on Sat for NYU 2008 grads. If any of your sons or daughters were in the CAP 21 performance (or the performance at the NYU graduation last Wed), just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the performance(s).</p>

<p>Jasmom,</p>

<p>I was there as well and have to agree that the performances were amazing! These past four years have just flown by, I can't believe the kids are done. The funny thing is I bumped into a young man we had met at the auditions. He was so nervous at the time. Fast forward four years and the same young man graduated with all sorts of honors and now has such an air of confidence. It was refreshing to see. (And the sweet thing is he remembered us, too!)</p>
