The Magic of The Musical, Live at SL19B!
Join Caledonia Skytower live on-the-air on Virtual Community Radio, or in Second Life at the SL19B Celebration Saturday, June 18th at 2pm slt/pacific.
The Magic of The Musical explores the blending of music and drama — featuring the songs, history, and lore that make up the musical theater canon. Learn more about some of your favorite shows and composers as we cue the orchestra, and the overture begins.
This month, Episode 03: “Countdown to The Tony Awards” (yes, they actually already happened — different kind of count) Caledonia talks to guest Morrie Enders, the Executive Director of Lincoln Community Playhouse in Nebraska. Together they explore some “what ifs” and “might have been“s from various Best Musical races from the American Theater Wing’s Tony Awards past.
In keeping with the show, “On Broadway!” is our Featured Music theme through the day. And don’t miss the latest episode of Where Have You Been? which this time visits the Elven Forest, and Engines of Our Ingenuity every four hours from 4am Pacific.
Morrie Enders is the Executive Director of Lincoln Community Playhouse in Nebraska. For his efforts in leading the Playhouse, Morrie has been honored with a Mayor’s Arts Award (2013) and Lincoln Nonprofit Executive of the Year (2015). The Playhouse has also received Mayor’s Arts Awards for Education (2010), Outstanding Arts Event (Penguin Project – 2014) and The Twink Lynch Organizational Achievement Award (2016).
