A new
musical with music by Barry Manilow and book and lyrics by Bruce Sussman
Tune in to six-part harmony and an unforgettable
true story of friendship and adversity.
"A
modern musical with its roots in the golden age of American musicals. So many
glorious moments, it deserves to be a smash hit. Brilliant score."- Harvey
Epstein, San Diego Arts
Magazine
"Harmony tells
a terrific, touching, tragic-but-true story. Manilow artfully captures the era
from jazz to jitterbug, novelty numbers to pop and politics. Sussman's
lyrics are urbane and clever. Remarkable."- Pat Launer, KPBS
They were the first sensational boy band: six
talented young men who came together in 1920s Germany and took the world by
storm with their signature blend of sophisticated close harmonies and
uproarious stage antics.
The Comedian Harmonists sold millions of records,
starred in a dozen films and packed the houses of the most prestigious concert
halls around the globe until the world they knew forever changed.
Their amazing story inspired longtime collaborators,
the legendary Barry Manilow and theatre veteran Bruce Sussman, to create a
spectacular new musical with an original score that celebrates this
extraordinary group of friends and ensures their quest for true harmony in the
most discordant chapter of human history will never be forgotten.
“We are both thrilled to finally return to our first
love--writing a musical together. Especially this one,” Manilow and Sussman
shared. “It has been an indescribable honor to spend all this time in the
company of these six extraordinary men.”
