From the music writer of “Man of La Mancha”, Mitch Leigh, based on the critically acclaimed play “Hogan’s Goat”, we bring you “Cry For Us All”.  A dramatic musical telling the stories of Irish immigrants living in Brooklyn in the late 1800’s.  Somehow this hefty beast of a show was on Broadway at the same time as Hair and 1776, which is something to marvel at.  Grab your tissues and tune in for a truly wonderful ride.    Featured Recording: Cry For Us All Original Broadway Cast Recording – Project 3 Total Sound Stereo - 1970   For the rights to produce the show, your best bet is to contact Mitch Leigh’s estate.  Visit www.Bevarelli.com for more!  To hear Jen on The Poe Theatre on the Air: https://www.poetheatre.org/poe-theatre-on-the-air To hear Mikey Voice a sock puppet in Urinetown!  https://www.facebook.com/landlesstheatre/ To Learn more about Once Upon a Time: A Storytelling Podcast visit: https://astorytellingpodcast.wixsite.com/home FOR OUR PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/BuriedBroadway For our Instagram: https://instagram.com/buriedbroadway?igshid=4rq4psgc1ft1 We love hearing from you!  Email BuriedBroadway@gmail.com to get in touch!

Before Six was even a twinkle in the imagination of the West End, there was Rex.  A musical about Henry VIII (and a couple of his wives) that was brought to Broadway with the legendary Richard Rodgers as the composer and Sheldon Harnick (Fiddler on the Roof, She Loves Me) writing the lyrics.  This show has been forgotten to time, but we think his story needs to come to a head. (You know we had to!) Featured Recording: Rex Original Broadway Cast Recording – RCA -- 1976 For the rights to produce the show, contact Sherman Yellen and Sheldon Harnick directly.
