Theater for the New City, East Village, NYC
Manhattan at the turn of the Millennium—it’s the red-hot center of the exploding new phenomenon of the Internet. Brash young Web pioneers vie to stake their claim. With the sudden new wealth and lavish launch parties, it’s the Great Gatsby on steroids. You might think of it as a La La Land for New York. It’s got great characters, vivacious original songs and blazing choreography. Most of the cast is made up of, appropriately, Millennials, so the whole project has a youthful, Spring Awakening zing. Its highly hummable numbers include “Manhattanite In The Manhattan Night,” “Virtual Virgins” and “Eaten By the Internet.”
