MARK FELT, SUPERSTAR - The Musical Saga of Watergate's "Deep Throat"
The Triad proudly presents the stage premiere of the exciting and intriguing new musical MARK FELT, SUPERSTAR, with book, music and lyrics by Joshua Rosenblum. Though his name is little known today, Mark Felt was the retired FBI man who revealed in 2005 that he had been Deep Throat, the secret source for journalists Woodward and Bernstein during the Watergate era. Deep Throat's identity was the greatest political mystery of all time and Felt's story is thrilling, heart-breaking, and funny in equal parts.
MARK FELT, SUPERSTAR is a whimsical musical romp through Watergate and beyond from Deep Throat's unique perspective. Only one U.S. President ever resigned so meet the man who brought him down.
Rosenblum is also the creator of BUSH IS BAD, the smash hit satirical musical revue that ran for a year and a half at the Triad, and was hailed by Variety magazine as "a sensation". Neal Mayer ("Les Miserables," Disney's "Hunchback of Notre Dame") takes the title role, leading a multi-talented cast of five, who together portray twenty-four colorful characters in a fast-moving, illuminating take on the shocking political scandal that riveted America and still reverberates today.
The cast also includes Peter Benson ("Drood," "Promises, Promises"), Will Erat ("Catch Me if You Can," "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels"), Michael McCoy ("Phantom of the Opera" "Bush is Bad"), and Vanessa Lemonides (Fiddler National Tour, Wallenberg).
Musical Direction by Joshua Rosenblum.
Directed by Annette Jolles.
