Big Voice: God Or Merman?, The

Synopsis:
In The Big Voice, Jim and Steve musicalize their relationship and prove that showbiz is as much a calling as the priesthood. This show chronicles the lives of a Baptist from arkansas and a Catholic from Brooklyn who find eternal salvation in the temple of musical theatre. The Big Voice traces the couple's meeting aboard a ship in the atlantic Ocean, Steve's struggle with AIDS, the production of their hit Off-Broadway musical The Last Session, their separation, and their reconciliation. It's a comedy about a 'gay marriage' between two men created by the couple themselves.

written by Jim Brochu And Steve Schalchlin; Additional lyrics by Marie Cain

Too Old For The Chorus, But Not Too Old To Be A Star

Marie Cain
Too Old for the Chorus is a smart, funny musical revue about men and women who find themselves suddenly 50! Set in their neighborhood retro coffee shop, five characters express in 18 musical numbers the gamut of their frustrations and joys - from troublesome relations with still demanding parents and cutting edge technology to finding delight in second careers (and second chances), getting smarter, and finally knowing that "age is just a Number." The title celebrates life, finding fulfillment and being appreciated for exactly who you are - all while getting a senior discount.

Notes:
Written by Nicholas Wright, Marie Cain And Shelly Markham.
