SPAMILTON Announced At The Reid Cabaret Theatre At Casa Mañana

The Reid Cabaret Theatre at Casa Mañana continues its season with Spamilton! A brilliant musical parody that tells the fictitious story of a very famous writer/director/star trying to save Broadway from mediocrity and oblivion. Along the way, this sharp and lovable genius not only takes aim at Broadway's current mega-hit, but manages to make hysterical minced meat out of many classic and new Broadway shows. This show is suitable for most audiences and runs March 28 - April 14. Tickets are on sale now.

Members of the Spamilton cast have been seen in the original off-Broadway production, the national tour and various regional productions of Spamilton. Casa Mañana's production stars Dedrick Bonner, Jason Denton, Michelle Lauto, T.J. Newton, Zak Reynolds and Miles Davis Tillman.

Gerry McIntyre is director. McIntyre has won widespread acclaim for his most recent choreographic credit: the Berkshire Theatre Group's production of Godspell - sold out, twice-extended, with rave reviews. He was recently made Associate Artistic Director of the York Theatre. He made his directing debut at The York with the 2018 musicals in Mufti presentation of Hallelujah Baby. Gerry is the choreographer of the hit off-Broadway show Spamilton. Gerry appeared as a performer in the original company of Once On This Island, and in Anything Goes with Patti LuPone. He was one of three Americans cast in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat with Donny Osmand.

Eugene Gwozdz is a music director and arranger from Fort Worth, Texas. He is the music director, arranger and orchestrator for American Dance Machine 21; Chita Rivera Dance Awards; the Jerome Robbins' Broadway 30th Anniversary Concert at the Guggenheim; Our Guy, CY, with Tony Award winners Randy Graff, Cady Huffman, and Lillias White; The Jerome Robbins Awards honoring Chita Rivera, Harold Prince, and Stephen Sondheim.

The Reid Cabaret Theatre at Casa Mañana opened in February 2018. Audiences love the intimate setting and table side food and drink service, and the high-caliber, cabaret-style shows consistently sell out. This high demand led to an expansion of the performance space in 2022, adding booths and increasing the capacity to 100 seats. Work is currently being done to add a bar and catering kitchen, set to be completed in the first half of 2023. The Reid Cabaret Theatre is a continuation of Casa Mañana's mission to bring live professional theatre unparalleled in artistic excellence to its diverse community and to future generations of artists and patrons.

Casa Mañana's Broadway, Children's Theatre, and Reid Cabaret Theatre productions are seen by nearly 140,000 people annually. Learn more at www.casamanana.org.
