The East Brainerd Community Theater is performing free a Broadway revue show for musical-lovers and romantics Sunday, Feb. 12.
The show, a donation-based fundraiser for the community troupe, features love songs from classic musicals and pieces from current Broadway hit “Hamilton.” The performance, directed by Gary Bynum, is a combined effort between anyone who has performed with the group and Christ United Methodist Church’s music department.
“We’re singing about 20 assorted Broadway songs; various love songs from some of our favorite shows,” said show coordinator Stephanie Pearson, adding that the pieces range from group performances to solos – and, of course, duets.
“Love songs tend to yield themselves to that,” she said with a laugh. “… Bring your sweetheart, bring a loved one, we just want you to come have a good time.”
With the classic “Hello Dolly” song “Put On Your Sunday Clothes” as the closer, leaving without a sense of optimism will be next-to-impossible, she said.
