The Secret Rose Theatre in the NoHo Arts District of North Hollywood will present the Secret Rose Mini Musical Fest in June and July 2009. The evening will feature seven 10 to 15 minute musicals.
In Change of Plans, (music, book, and lyrics by Michael Gordon Shapiro. Directed by Derrel Maury) a former entrepreneur, now in a rut, rediscovers his college journals. Confronted with his own aspirations from earlier in life, he's forced to decide which version of himself he's going to be.
What happens when an imaginative and single woman, turning 40, cant wait any longer for a Tiffany diamond? Find out in More Precious than Diamonds (music, book and lyrics by Stephanie Hutchinson. Directed by Jonathan Levit.) Julie and Michelle enter Tiffanys Beverly Hills. Her practical, married friend Michelle tries to talk her out of buying herself a diamond. A salesman persuades Julie to try on a ring, which gets stuck.
In Myjovi el Musical (music, book and lyrics by Jan Michael Alejandro. Directed by Rachel Myles) Carlos Carlos, an entrepreneur, leader in his community and ex-pro soccer player, is enjoying life. While celebrating his birthday with the employees of his successful sports drink company, his whole world comes to a screeching halt when he is served with a cease a desist order filed by a famous rock star and has to shut down his operation. This musical comedy is loosely based on a true story written in the New York Times.
Amongst these musicals is The Queen & the Dragon opening June 25 (libretto by Jan Michael Alejandro and Jonathan Price. Music by Jonathan Price. Directed by Kirk Smith.) It is Ancient Greek times, and Queen Cassandra vows her love to Adon, a warrior for the island kingdom of Kos, but Adon secretly loves Jason, the court singer. Cassandra orders Zeno, the alchemist, to make a love potion. What happens next is a beautiful new chamber opera.
Ex lovers meet at a restaurant for a reunion which turns sour, and two dysfunctional couples with various problems try to navigate a cocktail party in The Red Bouquet and Something Not Real (music, book and lyrics by Joshua Fardon. Directed by Wynn Marlow.)
