Heart Beatings

by Mark LaPierre

Directed by Diane Englert

Co-Producers: Mark LaPierre & Diane Englert

*WORLD PREMIERE MUSICAL!

October 15 - November 20, 2010

How has your heart taken a beating?

4 Actors perform 23 characters in 6 musicals in which doctors try to save a man whose head literally stops his heart; compulsive liars court; teddy bears demand to know your intentions; superheroes face the terror of relaxing; koi fish are pregnant with 50,000 children; and professional mourners cry over dead clowns. A great date night romantic comedy!

Previously seen at the York Theatre Off-Broadway as part of their Professional Development Reading series, this show receives its world premiere as the first musical ever produced at CoHo!

Jeff Landsman, Literary Manager at the Off-Broadway York Theatre, described Heart Beatings as "similar to I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change - only better."

Like a musical theatre version of David Ives' All in the Timing, the vignettes are hysterically funny, often sweetly touching, and add up to 90 minutes of unhinged romantic comedy.
