MLT is ramping up for its new season with its first production; the classic sci-fi horror comedy rock musical by Broadway legends, Alan Menken and Howard Ashman. With music composed in the style of early 1960’s rock and roll, doo-wop and early Motown, the score boasts several well-known tunes; including the title song, “Skid Row”, “Somewhere That’s Green”, and “Suddenly Seymour.” First produced on Broadway in 1982, the show has won critical acclaim and several awards including the 1982-1983 New York Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Musical, the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Musical, and the Outer Critics Circle Award.
