Coming to regeneration this fall
This November, Regeneration Theatre in partnership with Combustion Collective and Nelda Yaw Buckman are proud to present the first ever revival of the 1965 musical SKYSCRAPER by James Van Heusen, Sammy Cahn, and Peter Stone at UrbanStages, 259 West 30th St, New York, NY, 10001 for 10 performances only! Opening night will be Thursday November 7 at 7pm, and the production will run until Sunday November 17 at 2pm. Tickets are on sale NOW!
Skyscraper tells the story of an antique shop owner, Georgina, as she navigates through her “flights of fancy” daydreams and the rapidly evolving realities and urbanization of 1960s New York City. Adding to her frustrations are the Bushman brothers, Tim and Bert, who are locked in a hilarious competition to be the first to encourage her to sell her brownstone before the skyscraper they’re building behind it is completed.
Rounding out the world are a cast of whimsical characters: Georgina’s artistic and sophisticated assistant (who’s quite the fixture in her fanciful daydreams), her meddling mother and rather dull sister, a construction foreman who challenges conventionality, and a slew of your typical and not-so-typical New York City denizens.
