LOUISIANA BROADWAY MAGIC … “THE ZING IS BACK!”

by Lainie Berry Miller

In visiting with my friends who make their livings as performers on Broadway and beyond, I realize this pandemic presented us common challenges.

Theatre is shut down for the most part. The lights are off on Broadway. We have all taken to the internet to continue making magic, although the true magic for theatre performers lies in the relationship developed between the actors and audience. Laughter and applause create a circle of energy that gives live performance its “zing.” And how much we all love that buzz!!

And now – in Alexandria, at least – the theaters have reopened! I’m so lucky to be able to get onstage again – both as a performer and, most importantly, as a director. LBM Productions’ last live performance on stage was FROZEN, JR in January 2020 at Coughlin- Saunders Performing Arts Center. If a season must end abruptly – at least we did it on a high note!

And now (drum roll, please) we are thrilled to once again be on that stage presenting CABARET OF UNITY and our FINALÉ 2021 on May 15 at 7:00 PM!!! It will be a multimedia extravaganza!

Since September, our Cabaret class has videotaped musical numbers that promote friendship, peace, happiness and unity. Those will be projected while performers sing live! Also, our voice students have Italian Art Songs and Musical Theatre Classics for you! Come feel that “ZING”
again!!!

This summer, LBM Productions’ plans from 2020 will come to fruition! Two Musical Theatre Intensive Workshops and Productions for all ages promise top notch training while performing in a musical at Coughlin-Saunders Performing Arts Center. ARISTOCATS for age 7-18 is June 7-24 and GODSPELL for high school, college and adults is July 12-August 1.

Come join us onstage and feel that ZING first hand!
