Michael Arden and John Hill co-starred in the acclaimed Off-Broadway musical Bare, which was scheduled to reopen at Dodger Stages Oct. 27. Due to financial problems, the opening of the musical has been indefinitely postponed. The musical, with a rock score by Damon Intrabartolo, lyrics by Jon Hartmere Jr. and a book by Hartmere and Intrabartolo "explores the pains and pleasures of five high school seniors at a co-ed Catholic boarding school as they struggle to grow up in these complicated times. Each of them question where they are in their lives. Answers are sought in the church confessional and in less formal venues including a stage, a rave, and a well locked dorm room."
