Make Me a Song: The Music of William Finn, a revue dedicated to the work of the Tony Award-winning composer-lyricist, will begin performances at New World Stages on October 30. The production, to be directed by Rob Ruggiero, will open officially on November 12. Casting will be announced at a later date.

The show was seen last year at Hartford TheatreWorks, and was scheduled to open at the Zipper Theater in April. That production was postponed.

Finn's work for the stage includes The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, which is about to celebrate its 1000th performance on Broadway. Finn's other musicals include Falsettos, Romance in Hard Times, and Elegies: A Song Cycle.
