As previously reported, a staged reading of the rarely performed Richard Rodgers-Martin Charnin-Peter Stone musical Two by Two will be presented Nov. 1-2 at the Gindi Auditorium at American Jewish University in California.
The readings are part of Reprise Theatre Company's Richard Rodgers Celebration, which runs through Nov. 2 in a variety of venues across Los Angeles.
Directed by David Lee, the readings will feature the already announced Reprise artistic director Jason Alexander as Noah along with Megan Hilty, Steven Weber, Vicki Lewis and David Burnham. Tony Award winner Faith Prince has now joined the cast of the readings; Prince will play the role of Esther, wife of Noah.
Show times are Nov. 1 at 7:30 PM and Nov. 2 at 8 PM.
The staged reading will feature a 15-piece orchestration. With a book by Peter Stone, lyrics by Martin Charnin and music by Richard Rodgers, Two By Two is based on Clifford Odets' play The Flowering Peach.
