"Make
Me a Musical" is loosely based on the
Faust story and is set in the modern era, revolving around the backstage
events during rehearsals for a new off-Broadway show. It is essentially
a parody musical, with a jazz-swing score. It was first performed as "Success!" in September,
1995, at the Civic Theatre in Rotherham, West Yorkshire, where it received
standing ovations and a rave review in the local press. Other productions
are in the pipeline - including a Rumanian-language production by the State
operetta company in Constanta, on the Black Sea. It is also being translated
into German.
