THE PIN SPOT SERIES
Max wojtanowicZ
Part TED Talk, part cabaret, Pin Spot shines a light on the “story behind the story” — the history of the musical from concept to curtain! Hosted and curated by local performer and producer Max Wojtanowicz, each hour-long Pin Spot explores the origins, historical context, musical references, theatrical tidbits, and lasting legacy of the musical onstage, peppered with performances by local performers and conversations with experts. Whether you attend before or after you see the production onstage, Pin Spot is guaranteed to cultivate your curiosity about the show!

Join us as we explore the origins of the play that inspired Hello Dolly! and the people who made the musical happen, like the young and untested composer Jerry Herman, the innovative director-choreographer Gower Champion, the infamous producer David Merrick, the legendary Carol Channing, and the trailblazing Pearl Bailey. We'll also explore Herman's songbook, including a song that was added to the original production when Ethel Merman stepped in, with special guests Jason Hansen, Thomasina Petrus, and Kim Kivens.
This initiative made possible by the generous support of NAMT.
