March 03, 2026 By Andrew Gans
Dig Lenny Bruce, billed as "a musical tragicomedy," is getting an industry presentation March 3 at 3 PM in Manhattan.
Directed by Stuart Ross, the reading casts Noah Weisberg (Elf, Enron, South Pacific) in the titular role as the famed comic with Gina Milo, Bob Cuccioli, Tony winner Judy Kaye, Fulla Regrets (aka Michael Staffieri), Heather Parcells, Gabi Campo, Heather Makalani, Jerusha Cavazos, Evan Harrington, Paris Nix, and Pascal Pastrana. Casting is by Chad Murnane of Murnane Casting.
With a book, music, and lyrics by Walter Marks, the musical finds the legendary comic at the edge of oblivion—and on the brink of an unexpected audition: He must make God laugh by turning his own life into a show.
Dig Lenny Bruce also features music direction by Matthew Antonio Perri, general management by Martian Entertainment's Carl White and Gregory Rae, associate general management by Martian's Kaylin Kellin, with Vanessa Rebeil serving as production stage manager and Laura Downey as assistant stage manager.
