Music by Leonard Bernstein
Written by Hershey Felder
Directed by Joel Zwick
November 2 - December 12, 2010
Hershey Felder in Maestro: The Art of Leonard Bernstein is a new work from the creators of "George Gershwin Alone", "Monsieur Chopin" and "Beethoven, As I Know Him". With a story spanning the entire twentieth century, Leonard Bernstein, one of America's greatest musicians, broke through every artistic ceiling possible to become the world's musical ambassador. Conductor, composer, pianist, author, teacher, librettist, television star...for Leonard Bernstein boundaries simply did not exist. Hershey Felder and Joel Zwick collaborate for the fourth time in the Geffen Playhouse - bringing to life the composer of "West Side Story", "Candide", "Wonderful Town", "Mass", and many more.
