FEINSTEIN’S/54 BELOW, Broadway’s Supper Club, presents Brian Charles Rooney (The Threepenny Opera – Broadway; Bedbugs!) and Bart Shatto (War Paint – Broadway; Les Misérables – Broadway) in Session Girls on March 6, 2018, 9:30PM. A raucous and heartfelt evening of original tunes about three working women in the music industry, Session Girls gives us the inside scoop on classical cellist Mariana, betrothed to fellow cellist Rouald Finckel; bawdy backup vocalist Cocoa; and music-producer-in-training Joli Nye, and their trials and tribulations as they navigate the music world, their love lives, and the untenable travail of a big studio merger, helmed by beloved—and sometimes reviled!—music mogul, Terrence Rand.
Session Girls is brimming with original witty, charming and memorable tunes like “Painfully Self-Aware”, “Miss Manners Got It Wrong”, “You’re Never A Shoe-In”, “If You Wanna Make Dough On A Show”, “I’m A Producer (And You’re Not)”, “I Dreamt Of You”, “We Should All Just Be Excellent”, “Johnny Doesn’t Live Here Any More”, the award-winning “Nothing To Brag About”, and more—the night will be a foot-stomping, booth-romping blast!
Session Girls is created by award-winning writer, composer, lyricist and three-time Emmy® Award nominee Mia Moravis, a Van Dean/Stephanie Rosenberg producing partner of Broadway’s Anastasia The Musical. Grammy® and Tony® Award-winning Broadway Records President Van Dean will co-produce. Grammy® and Tony® Award nominated and Emmy® Award-winning Michael J. Moritz, Jr. is Music Director. Ms. Moravis will direct and co-produce. Robin Carus is Casting Director and has this to say about Session Girls: “Session Girls celebrates creative women and their successes… it is a beautiful and relevant story for today.” Who will play the “Session Girls”? That’s a surprise!
