About This Show
LAByrinth Theater Company presents Romantic Poetry: The Musicale, a special One-Night-Only event to benefit LAByrinth with music by Tony Award and Academy Award nominee Henry Kreiger (Dreamgirls) and book and lyrics by Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning Playwright John Patrick Shanley (Doubt).
Shanley and Kreiger join forces to topple the musical theater form with this soaring love song to impossible romance. In the words of the creators, "You will laugh, you will cry, you will shake your head. You will embrace your fellow audience members, and gasp: ‘Thank God we were here!’ You will make friends for life. The show will improve marriages, turn casual dates into torrid assignations, and reduce cynics to autograph hounds! Be there or face years of loneliness!"
This one-night benefit performance of Romantic Poetry: The Musicale will give the audience a chance to take a sneak peek at a delightful new musical that is scheduled to premiere at New York Stage & Film this summer.
All proceeds benefit LAByrinth Theater Company.
