GREETINGS FROM YORKVILLE

A new Musical love story, written and performed by Anya Turner and Robert Grusecki and directed by two-time Tony Award winner Thommie Walsh, is about trying again, and again, and never giving up. Lovers, coworkers, partners in everything, it is about a couple of songwriters from the Midwest who arrive in the Big City. From their fifth-floor walkup in Yorkville, they set out to find the way through the chaotic world of showbiz. This musical is about the duo’s desperate attempts to get their songs some recognition, whether by means of writing special material, recording CD’s, or creating full-length musicals. Who Knows Productions will present GREETINGS FROM YORKVILLE with music and lyrics by Robert Grusecki, lyrics and book by Anya Turner. Turner and Grusecki will both perform. ‘Who Knows’ Productions has already given confirmation for the Design Team for this forthcoming off-Broadway musical. Baayork Lee, who worked closely with the late Thommie Walsh, was hand picked by him to work on this project. He will be assisted by Scenic Designer Jesse Poleshuck, Costume Designer Dona Granata, Tony Award- winning Lighting Designer Natasha Katz, Sound Designer David Stollings, and celebrated illustrator Robert Risko.

The production, directed by Thommie Walsh, will run Off-Broadway at the SoHo Playhouse with previews starting Tuesday, September 25th. The official opening is Thursday, October 4, 2007 at 7 p.m. Thommie Walsh worked closely and actively with the writers over the past three years in the development of the show, not to mention being involved in the planning of this production, up until the time of his death in June 2007. Before his death, Thommie Walsh asked his old friend and associate Baayork Lee, whose credits include A Chorus Line, My One And Only, and Promises, Promises, to carry out his dream for GREETINGS FROM YORKVILLE. Rehearsals begin Sept 10 and the production will run Off-Broadway at the SoHo Playhouse with previews beginning Tuesday, September 25th. The official opening is Thursday, October 4, 2007 at 7 p.m.
