SARATOGA SPRINGS — On Sunday, Aug. 21 Home Made Theater, in partnership with Saratoga Arts will present a concert staging of the Stephen Sondheim / James Lapine musical Sunday in the Park with George.
This concert performance will feature a 14-member cast and a 12-piece orchestra, but no scenery, minimal costumes, and very few technical aspects to emphasize the music of this Broadway masterpiece.
Appearing will be Keenon McCollum, previously seen with Home Made Theater in the title role of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. Other Home Made Theater alumni featured in this concert will be Adrian Appleman, Anne-Marie Baker, Christopher Buettner, Lauren Kerr, Eric Rudy, and Kelly Sienkiewicz. Making their debut with Home Made Theater will be Travis Brunell, Heather Ferlo, Megan Morse, Aliveah Nelson, Zach Simpson, Kayla Toney, and Jeannine Trimboli.
The concert will be directed by Home Made Theater General Manager Eric Rudy, with Musical Direction by Richard Cherry.
Sunday in the Park with George will be performed in Congress Park beginning at 5:30. The concert is free. Home Made Theater and Saratoga Arts will “pass the hat” for donations.
Special thanks to Saratoga Shakespeare for the use of the Alfred Z. Solomon Stage, and the City of Saratoga Springs for allowing Home Made Theater and Saratoga Arts to perform in Congress Park.
