Book by
Eric Rockwell and Joanne Bogart

Sometimes one musical
isn’t
enough...In this hilarious parody of musical theater, one story
becomes
five different musicals, written in the distinctive styles of Rodgers
and Hammerstein, Stephen Sondheim, Kander & Ebb, Jerry Herman and
Andrew Lloyd Webber.
An
all-time favorite, Donna
Migliaccio and Bobby Smith will reprise their Helen Hayes nominated
roles in this critically acclaimed production.

Son of a Stand Up
Comedian
April 15 - May 9, 2010
Music and Lyrics by Paul Scott Goodman
Book by
Paul Scott Goodman and Miriam
Gordon
Directed by Michael Baron
Starring the acclaimed singer/
songwriter Paul Scott Goodman. An
authentic Scottish Jewish guitar playing rocker, Goodman tells the
story of
living and surviving the Soho music scene in the '80s; as an artist, a
lover and, ultimately, a
father. The "son of a stand-up comedian," Goodman's songs tell a
story of love and hope, a story due in no small part to Arthur
Miller. With wry wit and uncompromising honesty, Son of a Stand Up Comedian captures
the unique
sights and sounds, challenges and complexities of life as an artist in
Manhattan. Goodman returns to MetroStage after his award-winning
musical, ROOMS, a rock romance,
premiered here last season.
