Hush the Musical Review, a production from Charles Mandracchia & the Frizzi & Lazzi Musical Theatre Company, played five sold out performances at the Payan Theatre in the Times Square Arts Center.

Hush is set in the VIP waiting room at LaGuardia airport during a blinding snowstorm which has halted all departures. Two stranded, eccentric characters and their opposing philosophies are forced into comical confrontations with delightfully humorous consequences. Georgia, a New Age Buddhist meditation instructor encounters a successful, materialistic businessman, Othello Salviati. They are joined by an inept Hit Man and a kooky Stewardess. Music for Hush is composed by Charles Mandracchia, who also directs. The libretto was adapted from Etta Cascini's original Italian comedy SHHHH by Emelise Aleandri, Artistic Director of Frizzi & Lazzi.

Starring: SETH BLUM, EMELISE ALEANDRI, ELIZABETH McMONAGLE, THOMAS DOSE & MADELYN SCHWARTZ.

Musical Director: MITCH MARCUS
