Minted Music-Theatre invites you to enjoy some exciting new musical theater and art song by local and international composers Paul West Osterfield, Sergei Noskov, and Joseph Zellnik & Victor Lodato. Make an evening of it! As you listen, enjoy a light dinner, dessert, craft beer, or wine sold by the Café.
The Minted & Muddled Workshop encourages exploration of the creative process. Its primary focus is the development of works-in-progress through performance and open dialogue with the audience. The inaugural program in June 2014 will feature:
"Jabberwocky" by Paul Osterfield
"Songs of Love" by Paul Osterfield
"A Prayer for the Living" by Joe Zellnik & Victor Lodato
Excerpts from Gascony Guards - A musical play, adapted from "Cyrano de Bergerac" by Edmond Rostand by Sergei Noskov, Alan King, David Foss, and Anthony Hall
Components of the Workshop:
Minted - The performance. Our artists present a fully rehearsed, unstaged performance. Our goal is not a polished final product, but an effective performance that focuses on the characters, musical choices, and emotional/artistic arc of the piece.
Muddled - Audience feedback. During development and rehearsal of a piece, we ask our artists to come up with specific questions for the audience. We also invite general feedback from the audience - what was successful, what was not, etc. Artists and composers then use this feedback to revise and further develop the piece and future performances.
