Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Arts & Culture, Theater
Mission: Through our productions, educational programs and community outreach, we are com- mitted to increasing the awareness and appreciation of the rich heritage and cult- ural perspective of the musical theatre and its vast influence on the world stage.
Programs: 42nd street moon is one of the first of the now increasingly popular musical revival companies and has presented over 100 concert versions or intimately produced musicals since its founding in 1993. After ian marshall fishers discover the lost musicals series in london, 42nd street moon is the next oldest, worldwide, of these companies devoted to the preservation and performance of lost musical theater in concert. We have presented the american premieres of lost musical scores such as jerome kerns three sisters, which was written in 1934 but never heard in america, until our 1995 season 61 years later. In other cases, we have given the public the first production of a musical since its original broadway run, such as rodgers and harts 1926 musical peggy-ann.
during the 2016-2017 season, 42nd street moon produced and presented the following shows:baker street (1963)scrooge in love! (2015)new girl in town (1957)no, no, nanette (1925/1971)kismet in concert (1953)
