Gabriel Barre is an American director and actor. Best known for creating original musicals, his work has been seen on Broadway, throughout the United States, and across four continents internationally. Gabriel directed the Broadway production of Amazing Grace, which also toured the country and was a sit-down production at the new Museum of the Bible in Washington, DC in 2019. In New York City, he is known for his off-Broadway work: he directed the original production of Andrew Lippa's, The Wild Party at the Manhattan Theatre Club starring Idina Menzel, Taye Diggs, Brian Darcy James and Julia Murney. He was awarded the Calloway Award for Best Direction, and was nominated for five Outer Critics Circle Awards and thirteen Drama Desk Awards, both including Best Direction of a Musical. He directed the original production of John Cariani's Almost, Maine at the Daryl Roth Theatre, which has become one of the most frequently produced plays in the United States with over 4000 productions to date. It has been translated into a dozen languages and recently unseated Shakespeare as the most produced play in North American high schools. Other Off-Broadway productions include a new adaptation of Cyrano De Bergerac at the St. Clement's Theatre, using the Anthony Burgess translation, brought to life by a cast of only eight actors and featuring direction by Barre (who also appeared in the leading role), action direction by Rick Sordelet and an original musical score by Alexander Sovronsky, performed live, by the actor/musician cast.  He also directed the original productions of Summer of '42 at the Variety Arts Theatre, Honky Tonk Highway at Don't Tell Mama (winner of a MAC Award and Bistro Award for Best Review), Stars in Your Eyes at the Cherry Lane Theatre, Andrew Lippa's, john & jen at the Lamb's Theatre and Son Of A Gun at the Samuel Beckett Theater. Tricia Paoluccio is a multi talented actor, unique visual artist, and creator. Growing up on an almond farm in Modesto, CA, with an inventor as a father and school teacher mother, Tricia moved to NYC and sold her art on the street before she could make a living as an actor.

As a visual artist, Tricia has been commissioned to create botanical designs for luminaries in the fashion, publishing, and music industries. As a creator she has created and produced an optioned web-series, and, during the pandemic, cowrote a show in which she will star, premiering this Fall of 2022, where she gets to play her lifelong idol: Dolly Parton. This show, entitled Here You Come Again, was approved by Dolly, who has given Tricia permission to play her and given the creative team the world wide grand rights to all of her music. She divides her time between her California farm and NYC, where she lives with her two sons and husband, director Gabriel Barre. She is passionate about prison reform, having spent a dozen years serving as a volunteer chaplain at Manhattan Detention Center. Bruce Vilanch is an American comedy writer, songwriter and actor.

En este podcast vamos a centrarnos en el compositor y letrista americano David  Yazbek, hijo de padre libanés y madre judeo-italiana que desde muy joven se interesó por la música tomando clases de cello y piano. Tras terminar los estudios en la Universidad en 1982 entró a trabajar en el equipo del show televisivo de David Letterman. Comenzó escribiendo la música para anuncios comerciales y aunque ha grabado cinco discos con sus propias composiciones, la casualidad hizo que en el año 2000 le propusieran escribir las canciones para el musical basado en la película “Full Monty” y aquello daría un giro en su carrera encauzándolo al mundo del teatro musical.  Este seria su primer musical basado en una película de éxito, algo que se convertiría en una constante en sus siguientes trabajos.  Esperamos te guste la selección de temas suyos que hemos escogido. 00h 00'00" Where in the world is Carmen SanDiego 00h 02'28" Presentación 00h 03'18" Cabecera 00h 03'51" FULL MONTY 00h 05'10" It's a woman's world 00h 07'27" Life with Harold 00h 09'00" Big black man - André De Shields & Men 00h 13'28" You rule my world - John Ellison Conlee & Marcus Neville 00h 16'46" Breeze of the river - Patrick Wilson 00h 19'17" Let it go - The Company 00h 23'07" DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS 00h 23'49" Give them what they want - John Lithgow & Gregory Jabara 00h 26'58" What was a woman to do - Joanna Gleason & Women 00h 30'03" Great big stuff - Norbert Leo Butz & Ensemble 00h 33'57" Nothing is too wonderful to be true - S.
