San Diego: CHICAGO The Musical

In addition to juggling The Randy Report each day, I’m currently working with my dear friend Ron Kellum staging the music CHICAGO in San Diego, CA.

We open this Friday, February 15th, at the Birch North Park Theater in San Diego.

I’m having a great time with the cast and production team revisiting a show “near and dear to my heart.”

The theater posted this video highlighting much of the cast, along with Ron and I. If you are in the San Diego area, I’d love for you to come see the show over the next few weeks. Great cast, and of course, great material.

Ron and I spent years performing in the national, international and Broadway productions of the hit revival of CHICAGO, and have distilled that experience down for these actors into what we think is a fun, funny and fab evening in the theater.

And all that jazz…

“HAIR” National Company joins Chicago actors for marriage equality fund-raiser

The National Tour of the 2009 TONY Award winning Best Musical HAIR will join forces with several local Chicago actors to stage a “Be-In” during their stop in Chicago.

The concert event will benefit the non-profit Broadway Impact, a marriage equality organization founded by original tribe member and TONY Award nominee Gavin Creel.

The National Tour tribe has helped keep the spirit and the legacy of HAIR alive with three hugely successful be-in performances in D.C, Seattle, and Los Angeles and is pleased to welcome some of the Chicagoland area’s finest local actors into their commune as part of their efforts. The night of music will feature cast members singing their favorite tunes to benefit and raise awareness to the fight for equality.

The event will be held from 6:00-8:00p.m. on Monday, March 14, 2011 at Sidetrack Chicago located at 3349 N. Halsted in Chicago. General Admission tickets are $25 and will be available at the door.
