The Gig

8 Male, 3 Female

Douglas J. Cohen & Frank D. Gilroy Price: $8.95

A used car salesman, a dentist, a real estate agent, a financial advisor, a deli owner and a music teacher get together once a week to play jazz. It is the highlight of their lives

When one answers an ad and gets a two week gig in the Catskills, they shed their ordinary lives and begin an adventure that reveals truths about friendship, the joy of music and the importance of dreams

The gig is not what they expected and each returns from the Catskills changed by the experience. The actors need not play instruments; they mime performances

This winner of the 1994 Richard Rogers Grant was inaugurated at the Manhattan Theatre Club’s New Musicals in Concert at City Center and was developed at the O’Neill Music Theatre Conference and the Goodspeed at Chester
