The production marks the first collaboration between PlayMakers Repertory Company and the North Carolina Symphony, which present both Mozart's music and the acclaimed, Tony Award-winning play about him and his jealous rival composer together on a concert stage.

Joseph Haj stages the play and also appears as the Emperor. Grant Llewellyn serves as music director for the symphony.

The concert is being presented as part of the Symphony's "Composer Portraits" series.

Urie appeared recently in The Temperamentals (Lucille Lortel Award) at New World Stages and is also known for his work in the series "Ugly Betty."

Dooley, a PlayMakers company member, has appeared on Broadway in Macbeth and won an Obie Award for his performance in Peer Gynt with CSC Repertory Company.
