Marc Summers, Alex Brightman and Drew Gasparini to Lead Post-Show Talkback at The Life and Slimes of Marc Summers

Audiences of The Life and Slimes of Marc Summers May 19 will receive a peek behind the curtain from two-time Tony nominee Alex Brightman, Drew Gasparini, and Marc Summers as they present a post-show talkback entitled The Making of The Life and Slimes of Marc Summers. The talkback is expected to center on how Brightman and Gasparini met, befriended, and crafted an homage to Summers.

The show, which officially opened Off-Broadway February 22, reunited Brightman with composer Drew Gasparini to tell the story of Nickelodeon host Marc Summers. Playing New World Stages, the production began performances February 14.

Part interactive game show, part memoir, The Life and Slimes of Marc Summers follows the infamous host from the set of the children's game show Double Dare to the Food Network, where he has now worked for more than 20 years. Starring Summers, the production relies heavily on audience participation to bring iconic moments in television history to life.

The creative team includes director Chad Rabinovitz, set designer Christopher Rhoton, lighting designer Jeffrey Small, and co-sound designers David Sheehan and Hide J Nakajo. The show is general managed by LDK Productions' Lisa Dozier Shacket and Michael Shannon.

The Life and Slimes of Marc Summers is produced by Lisa Dozier Shacket, with Guy Fieri, Jeremy Wein/Existence Media in association with Marlene and Gary Cohen, Christopher Rhoton, and Joe Trentacosta.

The work was originally developed and produced at Constellation Stage and Screen in Bloomington, Indiana.
