The composer-parodist Mark Bunyan presents his new revue Unburied Treasures at the Rosie. His new show is directed by Karen Rabinowitz who also choreographed Bunyan’s musical Just Good Friends. The mood of the revue is set by the stage design – a black coffin with flowers is sitting on a platform. We soon learn from Jo and Mo (Haydn and Mozart) in a cheerful song that they became victims of posthumous decapitation - their heads were stolen by phrenologists eager to study the bumps on their skulls. Macabre indeed – and very funny! The show features the posthumous adventures of famous corpses from Christopher Columbus to Evita, with appearances by Errol Flynn, Mozart, Haydn, Daniel Boone, Shelley, David Livingstone and others along the way. The talented cast is comprised of Adam Walker, Jack Summers, James Smoker, Jessica Sherman and Tom McLean play the dead celebs with gusto and sing their hearts out for the dead in songs like Happy in Hollywood, Lincoln – A Melodrama, and The Bones of Boone. Musical direction by Peter Wilson.
