Works Stage Leonard Bernstein's New York (2019)

Jazzy, romantic, edgy, elegant and lyrical, this two-person musical revue explores Leonard Bernstein’s passionate relationship with New York City.
"A thrilling tribute to Bernstein conceived by the conductor, pianist and music-theater scholar Rob Fisher." - Stephen Holden, The New York Times
This charming two-hander explores Bernstein’s relationship with NYC, his famous New York friends (Sondheim, Comden & Green, Robbins and Copland), and the way that New York City informed Bernstein’s music, life and relationships. On a parallel pathway, the show presents a boy-meets-girl story depicting the developing relationship between the two performers: one a seasoned New Yorker and the other a wide-eyed newcomer.
"A conceptually focused, musically incisive celebration of Bernstein’s passionate identification with New York City and with George Gershwin... That Mr. Fisher could create such a rich musical portrait using only seven musicians, including the singers, was a tribute to his understanding of the scores and his skill at paring down full-bodied orchestral arrangements to a skeletal core." - Stephen Holden, The New York Times
Music by Leonard Bernstein / Lyrics by Betty Comden, Adolph Green, Stephen Sondheim and Leonard Bernstein / Conceived and arranged by Rob Fisher / Book by Rob Fisher, Sammy Buck, and Garth Edwin Sunderland.
