Oscar, York, Gurwin to Star in Broadway Musicals of 1962

Brad Oscar, Rachel York, cabaret star Scott Coulter, and Forbidden Broadway alumnae Felicia Finley, Danny Gurwin, and Christine Pedi will star in this season’s final installment of the Broadway by the Year series. The Broadway Musicals of 1962 will be held at 8 p.m. on Monday, June 13 at Town Hall (123 West 43rd Street). The one-night-only concert will feature songs from such shows as A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Stop the World I Want to Get Off, I Can Get it for You Wholesale, All American, and No Strings.

Broadway star Bryan Batt (who is currently understudying Gary Beach in La Cage Aux Folles) will make his directorial debut with this concert. “I am thrilled to have Bryan directing our season finale,” said TheaterMania’s Scott Siegel, the series’ creator-producer-writer-host. “He’s appeared in several of the concerts and, like Marc Kudisch and Emily Skinner who also directed these shows, he is creative, inventive, and fully understands what we’re trying to convey to our audience.”

Oscar has starred in both the New York and London productions of The Producers and recently finished filming the movie version. York is currently co-starring in Dessa Rose at the Mitzi Newhouse Theater. Gurwin is now playing Laurie in Little Women, which is closing this Sunday.

Tickets are priced at $40 and $45; they may be purchased by visiting the Town Hall box office or by calling 212-840-2824.
