Shorecrest Performing Arts Presents TONY-NOMINATED BROADWAY MUSICAL “SOMETHING ROTTEN!”

April 20, 2021 by Post

The award-winning Shorecrest Performing Arts thespians are back in the Janet Root Theatre for the hilarious musical “Something Rotten!” from April 23 – May 1 at Shorecrest Preparatory School.

Nominated for numerous Tony Awards including Best Musical, “Something Rotten!” tells the story of brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom, two playwrights stuck in the shadow of William Shakespeare. When a soothsayer foretells the next big thing in theatre involves singing, dancing, and acting at the SAME TIME, the Bottom brothers set out to write the world’s very first musical. “Something Rotten!” is an uproarious dose of Broadway fun and an irresistible ode to musicals – those dazzling creations we have pined for the past year that entertain us, inspire us, and remind us that everything’s better with an exclamation point! With gut-busting laughs, this show is something wonderful – but only for mature audiences.

“Something Rotten!” music and lyrics are by Grammy Award winner and Tony Award® nominee Wayne Kirkpatrick and Golden Globe Award and Tony Award® nominee Karey Kirkpatrick; and book by Tony Award® nominees Karey Kirkpatrick and bestselling author John O’Farrell. Shorecrest’s performance is directed and choreographed by Cheryl Lee. Dedicated to musical theatre education at Shorecrest since 1998, Cheryl Lee is Chair of the Performing Arts Department, Director of Cultural Enrichment, and Upper School Musical Theatre-Dance Faculty Member.

Performances are on the following dates:
Friday, April 23, at 7pm
Saturday, April 24, at 1pm and 7pm
Thursday, April 29, at 7pm
Saturday, May 1, at 7pm
