Created by Lior Kalfo and Shai Fishman, Voca People, according to press notes, is "performed by eight snow-white ruby-lipped aliens with perfect harmony, [and] there are no musical instruments, only vocals. Voca People believe music is the source of life that brings harmony, joy and refueling. A performance bursts with over 70 well known songs that create vocal 'fireworks' and leave audiences clapping along and snapping their fingers. Voca People is the musical theater event that bridges languages, cultures, and planets." The musical has played sold-out tours through Europe, South America and the Middle East. The Off-Broadway opening in New York City will mark the first time Voca People sing in America. Casting will be announced shortly.
Voca People will feature direction and choreography by Kalfo with musical direction and arrangements by Fishman. The creative team includes lighting designer Roy Milo, sound designer Naor Ben Meir and costume designer Doron Ashkenazi.
The Westside Theatre is located at 407 W. 43rd Street. For more information and tickets, call (212) 239-6200 or visit www.VocaPeopleNYC.com.
