Olathe Civic Theatre Assn (OCTA) presents MUSICAL OF MUSICALS: THE MUSICAL by Rockwell and Bogart
The Musical of Musicals (The Musical!) is a satire of musical theatre, where one story becomes five delightful musicals. The basic plot: June is an ingenue who can’t pay the rent and is threatened by her evil landlord. Will the handsome leading man come to the rescue? The variations are: a Rodgers & Hammerstein version, set in Kansas in August, complete with a dream ballet; a Sondheim version, featuring the landlord as a tortured artistic genius who slashes the throats of his tenants in revenge for not appreciating his work; a Jerry Herman version, as a splashy star vehicle; an Andrew Lloyd Webber version, a rock musical with themes borrowed from Puccini; and a Kander & Ebb version, set in a speakeasy in Chicago. Before it moved off-Broadway, this comic valentine to musical theatre was the longest-running show in the York Theatre Company’s 35-year history.
