Directed by Stephanie Farhood
“Uproarious and hysterically funny!” - Associated Press
GUTENBERG! THE MUSICAL! is a loving spoof in which two aspiring playwrights perform a backers’ audition for their new project: A big, splashy musical about printing press inventor Johann Gutenberg (not Steve Guttenberg from the cinema classic Short Circuit).
"I don't recall the last time I left a theater with a face that ached from laughing way too much." - Paul Constant, The Stranger
With an unending supply of enthusiasm, Bud and Doug sing all the songs and play all the parts in their crass historical epic, with the hope that one of the producers in attendance will give them a Broadway contract – fulfilling their sky-high, if simple-minded, dreams.
Featuring: Evan Woltz as Bud and Chris Shea as Doug with Kim Dare on piano
