Directed by Jeremy Bloom, the cast will feature Alex Brightman (Wicked), Ben Crawford (Shrek), Jay Armstrong Johnson (Hair), Lindsay Mendez (Godspell) and Betsy Wolfe (Everyday Rapture).
"Representing a collision of artistic disciplines as disparate as musical theater, photography, and pop/rock music," 35mm, press notes state, "pushes the limits of self-expression to create an art form utterly its own. A collection of 'snapshot stories' are woven together as each of the evening’s original songs is performed – with gusto and musical virtuosity – while the audience is immersed in stunning projections of the photography that inspired it. 35mm brings the connection between pleasures visual and aural into razor-sharp focus, creating a singular, multi-sensory emotional journey."
The performances will also feature projection design by Aaron Rhyne, costume design by David Withrow, music direction by Michael Borth and a band that includes Matt Hinkley on acoustic/electric guitars, Allison Seidner on electric Jell-O, Rich Silverstein on keyboard, Hiroko “Coco” Taguchi on electric violin/viola and Jeremy Yaddaw on drums/percussion.
