Three Iconis Musicals Presented at Ars Nova July 20
By Andrew Gans
20 Jul 2007
A Joe Iconis Mini-Musical Triple Feature is the title of the July 20 concert at the Ars Nova on West 54th Street.
The 8 PM performance will feature three mini-musicals penned by Iconis: Nelson Rocks!, "a rock musical about asking Jenny Veccharelli to the prom" that was co-written with Reza Jacobs; Miss Marzipan, "a jittery musical about a frazzled suburbanite preparing for a high-stakes dinner party"; and The Process, "a bleeding-heart musical about a writer trying to meet a deadline."
Songwriter Iconis will play piano for the concert, and he will be joined onstage by Nick Blaemire, Jared Weiss, Lorinda Lisitza, Lance Rubin, Lauren Marcus, Morgan Pate and Jason "Sweet Tooth" Williams. John Simpkins directs.
Iconis, who received his MFA from the NYU/Tisch Graduate Musical Theater Writing Program, is a recipient of both the Jonathan Larson Award and the Daryl Roth Award. MCC will present his musical The Black Suits, penned with Robert Maddock, next year.
The Arts Nova is located in Manhattan at 511 West 54th Street. Tickets, priced $15, are available by calling (212) 868-444 or by visiting www.smarttix.com.
