The long-awaited revival of Jason Robert Brown and Alfred Uhry’s gripping Tony Award-winning murder mystery musical PARADE as presented five years ago at Fullerton’s Plummer Auditorium by 3-D Theatricals (3DT) of Los Angeles and Orange County, will once again take a bow at two Southern California main stage theatres beginning June 1 – 10 at the Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts and June 15 – 24, 2018 at the Redondo Beach Performing Arts Center.
The musical was first produced on Broadway in 1998. Even though it closed after a brief stay at the Vivian Beaumont Theatre, the musical made a profound impact with the Broadway League and the American Theatre Wing… thus showering the production with Tony Awards in 1999 for Best Book and Best Original Score (out of nine
nominations); and six Drama Desk Awards (Outstanding Musical, Outstanding Actor, Outstanding Actress, Outstanding Featured Actor, Outstanding Orchestrations and Outstanding Music).
Like New York, voting members of the LA Stage Alliance (a non-profit arts service organization dedicated to building awareness, appreciation, and support for the performing arts in Greater Los Angeles), were deeply touched by 3-D Theatricals’ production of PARADE; so much so, that it was nominated for fifteen Los Angeles Ovation Awards, earning four in the “Large Theatre” categories of Best Musical, Best Lead Actor in a Musical; Best Featured Actor in a Musical and Best Acting Ensemble in a Musical.
In 2013 the Los Angeles Times wrote… “Exceptional integrity distinguishes Parade in Fullerton. 3-D Theatricals attains a rarefied level of artistry with this arresting, beautifully appointed take. Director T.J. Dawson, Choreographer Dana Solimando, and Musical Director David Lamoureux approach the fact-based property and its complex themes — anti-Semitism, legal malfeasance and political expediency among them — with uncompromising conviction. 3-D Theatricals’ Parade is hard to forget.”
