TIME
An average day in the life
of Charlie Brown
The Colony's production
of You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown was re-imagined by its
creative team and helped make a star of Kristin Chenoweth when it was revised
on Broadway in 1999. Broadway director Michael Mayer visited with Charles
M. Schulz to get his blessing on the revision. Mr. Schulz gave Mayer access
to his cartoons and the result was thorough. Seventeen of the original
show’s scenes have been deleted and 21 new ones have been added. Composer
Andrew Lippa revised seven of the original 14 songs with new vocal and
dance arrangements and has written two new songs as well as reconceiving
the beloved opening number.
This production was
made possible by the kindness and generosity of
Frans Klinkenberg,
Angstrom Stage Lighting, Bardwell's on the Boulevard, Center Trust, Michael
Hall, Doug Haverty, Art + Soul Designs, David Holmes, Phil Moore, Occidental
College Dept. of Theatre, Salvador Palacios, California Lighting &
Power, Mi Piace, John Schumacher, George Sebastian, Chris Thomas, Jack
Vandermark, Wadler Data Systems, Kelly Witherall, and special thanks to
SEARS, Media City Center.
