Press Release
Piano Bar #2: MONA LISA
See: www.pianobarlive.com
August 15, 16, 17, 2004, a comedic, heartwarming musical will be held at
KENT LE MAR DANCE STUDIO in Cuyahoga Falls. Its Episode #2 of what hopes
to be a monthly theatrical production of a great evening at a nice piano
bar, with 21 favorite show tunes, favorites, standards and hits. Think
TV, a show such as Cheers, but centered around a piano with singing,
dancing, and a different story every month acted out by a cast of regulars
as well as new surprises.
The story of Piano Bar #2, MONA LISA, is a beautiful, blighted, dishy babe
saunters into Piano Bar pining over a lost love. Nate, the waiter,
Stavros, the piano player, and Bony Nardoni, the customer, all embark on
musical antics to get her attention and try to win her heart.
Mona is played by Heather Culotta, the teen-age singing phenom who starred
in Piano Bar #1, Puttin On The Ritz, in June at Actors Summit. As Mona
Lisa, Heather will sing such scorchers as Cant Help Lovin Dat Man
(from Showboat), Blue Eyes, by Elton John, and 2 originals.
Nate, the Waiter cum Manager, is played by Kent Le Mar, who starred in the
same role in Piano Bar #1, and is now co-producer and owner of Kent Le Mar
Dance Studio, where the show will be performed. Kent recently brought
the house down at Actors Summit as Jesus in their held-over production of
Cotton Patch Gospel.
Bony Nardoni, the musical customer, is played by Doug Everton,
impersonator extraordinare, who also starred in Cotton Patch Gospel at
Actors Summit. He will be recognized as the multi-talented singing banjo
player who could sound like a trumpet.
Steve Dallas debuts with Piano Bar as Stavros, the piano player. (see
www.stevedallas.com) Steve is a professional pianist, singer, vocal
accompanist and long-time friend of co-writer Max Grossenbacher, who
starred in Puttin On The Ritz as himself.
