About This Show
The Actors’ Fund of America presents a concert presentation of Stephen Sondheim’s latest musical, Bounce, featuring the original cast.
The show features a book by John Weidman, and tells the story of Addison and Wilson Mizner, brothers born into a late-19th century America which seemed to offer them a life of limitless adventures and boundless opportunities – if only they had the energy and audacity to sieze them. From the Gold Rush in Alaska to the land boom in Florida, the Mizner Brothers tumbled through a country still writing and rewriting the rules by which it would choose to live. Addison and Wilson tried a little bit of everything, cheerfully reinventing themselves as prospectors, gamblers, entrepreneurs, con men, and visionary artists.
The one night only concert event will feature Gavin Creel, Richard Kind, Herndon Lackey, Howard McGillin, Michele Pawk, and Jane Powell. The cast will also feature Sean Blake, Marilynn Bogetich, Tom Daugherty, Jeff Dumas, Nicole Grothues, Rick Hilsabeck, Jeff Parker, Harriet Nzinga Plumpp, Jenny Powers, Craig Ramsay, and Fred Zimmerman.
