Screams pierce the 'Silence!'
From the article:
"Mix together a pound of ground lamb meat, a cup of fava beans, a splash of Chianti and some comedy seasonings, and what do you get? "Silence! The Musical" is a riotous and often profane theatrical stew that sends up the Oscar-winning movie "The Silence of the Lambs." Since opening in New York last year, the stage comedy has become a modest success and has run at two different off-Broadway spaces. Next week, the show will make its Los Angeles debut at the Hayworth Theatre. The L.A. opening is particularly meaningful for the show's songwriting brothers, Jon and Al Kaplan. The siblings live in Sherman Oaks and started writing songs for "Silence!" more than 10 years ago for what was then just an Internet lark. "
