Theater for the New City: Tally Ho!, or Navigating the Future

Friday, August 14, 2009

Brooklyn

Theater for the New City's award-winning Street Theater Company presents Tally Ho!, or Navigating the Future a rip-roaring musical which will tour City streets, parks and playgrounds throughout the five boroughs.

The production, free to all New Yorkers, has book, lyrics and direction by Crystal Field and musical score composed by David Tice. It's about a young bank teller's adventures in high finance with the big bankers and the heads of industry. The tale gets cosmic as Hera and Athena jump in to help when toxic assets and old mortgages join the runoff from the earth--the dead batteries, pesticides and rotting garbage--that have begun piling up on Mount Olympus. The piece will be written dynamically as events of state and the world unfold.

The production will play Theater for the New City (August 1), Morningside Park (August 2), Tompkins Square Park (August 8), Herbert Von King Park (August 9), Coney Island Boardwalk (August 14), Wise Towers (August 15), Central Park Bandshell (August 16), Prospect Park Concert Grove (August 22), Travers Park (August 23), St. Mary's Park (August 29), Washington Square Park (August 30), Sobel Court & Bowen Street (September 12), and St. Marks Church (September 13).
