We have to start by thanking Le Petit and the new staff for making Altar Boyz finally come to life the way we always dreamed it could. It really makes us look forward to working with these guys next year. There are still tickets for the run which closes on May 24th (Gary's birthday) so don't miss out.
OK, so the big musical...
As far as Hairspray goes, we learned that the owners of the show are not willing to release the New Orleans market in the near future, as they feel they have not had the opportunity to bring the show here yet. We can't have it, but no one can. The day the rights are released we have been promised a phone call and the option to do the show. So, our never-ending Hairspray saga continues.
The show we are going to do on Le Petit's mainstage is
DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS. It will run for three weeks in January. We could not be more excited. It's a hilarious show with a lot of great roles. We will keep everyone updated when it's time for auditions for this, as well as Spelling Bee.
In the mean time, COME SEE ALTAR BOYZ!!!
