Welcome to the Renaissance! The Amarillo Little Theatre Academy and Fluid Line Components are excited to present the funniest new musical comedy in the last 500 years, Something Rotten! This endlessly witty musical about the making of the world’s first musical is filled to the brim with side-splitting jokes, catchy tunes and tap dancing eggs – yes, you read that right.
It’s 1595 in London, England, and brothers and struggling writing duo, Nick and Nigel Bottom, are feeling discouraged in the shadow of everyone’s favorite celebrity, William Shakespeare. In an attempt to write a hit and get them out of debt, they seek out a soothsayer to predict the next big thing in the theatre…Musicals! Can they beat the bard or will their musical comedy end up a scrambled mess?
Something Rotten! features 28 talented Academy students and is directed by Academy Director Harrison Stringer. Academy alum Kayden Burns and Academy Instructor Beth Alexander serve as Music Director and Choreographer, respectively. This huge musical, with lush Costume Design by Aimee Pritchard and extravagant Scenic Design by Tana Roberson, brings the audience right into the streets of Renaissance England. Rounding out the production team are Socorra Carrillo as Assistant Director and Mabry Fristoe and Tres Norris as Production Assistants.
This hilarious musical is being presented July 10th – 13th. Tickets are $22.00 for ages 12 and up and $18.00 for under 12. Tickets go on sale to ALT season ticket holders on June 23rd and to the general public on June 30th. Reservations can be made by calling the ALT box office at (806) 355-9991 or online at www.amarillolittletheatre.org. This performance will take place at the Allen Shankles Mainstage – 2019 Civic Circle and is rated 13+.
Something Rotten! is a laugh-a-minute satire that’s perfect for fervent theatre-goers, Shakespeare fans and lay people alike. Make your reservations today!
