by Alexa Christina Politis June 28, 2016
written by Alexa Christina Politis

 Phoenix Rising Girls and the Secrets We Keep (Written and directed by Laura Gosheff), is a whimsical and provocative production that demonstrates the deepest of fears, often overlooked, within the souls of different struggling females (the complex and ever-prevalent issues explored in this fine work include: sexuality, self-worth out of a broken home, sex and love, fear) and their ride to perseverance.

‘She Loves Me’ Will Be Live Streamed On BroadwayHD

by Alexa Christina Politis June 25, 2016
written by Alexa Christina Politis

On June 30th, She Loves Me, will be the first Broadway show ever to be broadcast live. The Roundabout Theatre Company’s revival will star Laura Benanti, Zachary Levi and Jane Krakowski and will start at 8 p.m.

Stewart F. Lane and Bonnie Comley, co-founders of BroadwayHD expressed, “We are honored to expand the reach of live theater beyond Broadway to audiences everywhere,” said. “This has always been a dream of ours and we are happy to achieve it in less than a year since our launch. Thank you to Roundabout Theatre Company for entrusting us to bring this historic live theater event to BroadwayHD.”

BroadwayHD live streamed the Behind the Scenes Show for The 70th Annual Tony Awards this year and have also streamed Off-Broadway’s productions of the New Group’s Buried Child, and Signature Theatre’s Old Hats.

“We are proud to be making Broadway history with She Loves Me, the show that launched Roundabout’s Musical Theatre Program in 1993. As a nonprofit institution, this is an incredible opportunity for us to share Scott Ellis’s new Broadway production beyond our subscribers, donors and other ticket buyers for our limited run at Studio 54,” said Todd Haimes, Roundabout Theatre Company’s Artistic Director. “This groundbreaking partnership with BroadwayHD allows us to bring She Loves Me to a large audience throughout the United States, and around the globe.”

You can reserve a live stream pass to She Loves Me on June 30 at 8 p.m. EDT for $9.99 by visiting broadwayhd.com/shelovesme.  The live stream is on BroadwayHD’s Roku and Apple TV apps.  You also have the opportunity for annual subscriptions to BroadwayHD’s on-demand library.

Major support for She Loves Me is provided by The Blanche and Irving Laurie Foundation. She Loves Me benefits from Roundabout’s Musical Theatre Fund with lead gifts from The Howard Gilman Foundation and Perry and Marty Granoff.

She Loves Me, directed by Scott Ellis and choreographed by Warren Carlyle, runs through July 10 at Studio 54 (in part of Roundabout Theatre Company’s 50th Anniversary Season)  and stars Tony Award-winner Laura Benanti and Zachary Levi, alongside Tony Award-nominee Gavin Creel, Byron Jennings, Tom McGowan and Tony Award-winner Jane Krakowski. This classic musical comedy is musically directed by Paul Gemignani andfeatures a book by Joe Masteroff, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick and music by Jerry Bock.

She Loves Me was Winner of the 2016 Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Revival of a Musical.

She Loves Me is a touching musical comedy classic about finding true love like they did in the good ole’ days (courting, dating, before facebook and tinder). It follows Georg (Levi) and Amalia (Benanti), two parfumerie clerks who are oceans apart from being best of friends. They constantly bump heads while on the job, and the two characters struggle to find common ground. The twist, however, is that they are each others anonymous romantic pen pals and have been falling for each other, unknowingly all along. Will their relationship blossom once their identities are truly revealed?

Major support for She Loves Me is provided by The Blanche and Irving Laurie Foundation. She Loves Me benefits from Roundabout’s Musical Theatre Fund with lead gifts from The Howard Gilman Foundation and Perry and Marty Granoff.
