Grand Singing Comes to Women's Theater Company

Parsippany Playhouse will come alive with the sounds of Rodgers and Hammerstein.

Parsippany's Women’s Theater Company presents the final show of its 20th season,  the Rodgers and Hammerstein revue “A Grand Night for Singing.” Performances run on the weekends of May 17 through June 2.

The production, what the company calls a celebration of "timeless masterpieces from the music of Richard Rodgers and lyrics of Oscar Hammerstein II," is produced by Barbara Krajkowski with musical direction from Warren Helms and staging by Lauren Moran Mills.

The two act musical revue was conceived by Broadway legend Walter Bobbie, who compiled 34 Broadway gems from the R&H canon. It includes fresh takes on songs from popular and historic musicals such as "Oklahoma!", "The Sound of Music," "The King and I," "South Pacific," and even the recent Broadway revival, "Cinderella."
