Creative Team Will Discuss Making of ‘The Last Session’
“The Making of the Musical ‘The Last Session,’ ” featuring a discussion with the show’s composer-lyricist Steve Schalchlin and author-director Jim Brochu, will be presented by Broadway on Sunset on May 22 at 7:30 p.m., at Upstairs at the Coronet Theatre, 368 N. La Cienega Blvd.
After workshopping at the Zephyr Theatre in 1996, “The Last Session” went on to critically acclaimed, extended hit runs between 1997 and 1999 in New York, at the Laguna Playhouse and at the Tiffany Theater.
A deeply moving celebration of life, the musical, reflecting Schalchlin’s own experiences, centers around a songwriter and performer living with AIDS, who invites his friends to what he intends to be his farewell recording session.
The event is moderated by Broadway on Sunset co-founder and literary director Libbe S. HaLevy.
Tickets are $15.
Reservations: (323) 851-4693.
