About me:

MISSION Opening Doors Theatre Company is a New York City-based, non-profit performing arts ensemble committed to developing an eclectic mix of programming through the artistic collaboration of performers as well as playwrights, composers, directors and designers, and providing opportunities for new talent to be seen and heard. The company was formed in 2006 by Suzanne Adams (Artistic Director), along with Hector Coris (Associate Artistic Director) and Eric Martin (Executive Director).

The “Closing Notice” Series is a set of “living cast album” presentations focusing on classic musicals that were either dubbed a “flop”, had short commercial runs or most likely will never be revived again. Opening Doors respectfully presents these scores with the understanding that – unsuccessful or not – the creators poured their craft, guts and love into the work and they deserve to be heard once again – live on stage. The focus is on the score with a truncated book. The “Closing Notice” series began in December 2006 with the critically-acclaimed presentation of Bring Back Birdie (2007 MAC Award nomination - Outstanding Variety Production/Recurring Series), followed by It's a Bird, It's a Plane, It's Superman! (March 2007). Season I was rounded off with the 50th anniversary presentation – and first ever revival - of 1957’s Whoop-Up. All three shows enjoyed sold out houses. The second Closing Notice season began with Flora the Red Menace, followed by The Best Little Whorehouse Goes Public and Goldilocks.

The Closing Notice series is fast becoming a favorite of musical theatre enthusiasts in NYC.
