Julie Halston and Howard McGillin will take part in a concert reading of Hello! My Baby, to be held at The Shop @ CAP21 on March 29 at 7:30pm. Cheri Steinkeller and Janet Brenner will co-direct the performance, which will feature musical direction by Aron Accurso.

With a book by Steinkellner and music supervision and arrangements by Georgia Stitt, the show weaves an updated Tin Pan Alley score into a story of teen song-pluggers, gangsters, immigrants, and debutantes on the Lower East Side, as they fall in love, peddle tunes, gender-swap, and two-step over society to make their dreams come true.

The cast will also feature Harrison Brian Fuchs, Charlotte Maltby, Ashley Mortensen, Emma Steinkellner, Ashley Kane, Matt Gibson, Nick Austin, Kevin Metzger, Adam Mosebach, Robbie Metzbower, Jacob Hoffman, and Robert Creighton.

The performance is free and open to the public. Reservations are suggested and can be made by visiting www.cap21.org.
