Joe's Opera

Encyclopedia : J : JO : JOE : Joe's Opera

A Rock Opera by Tommy Mandel, first produced at Cafe LaMama ETC, NYC in 1974 directed by John Braswell, then in 1975 by the Stuart Ostrow Musical Theater Lab at St. Clement's Church, NYC directed by Robert Allan Ackerman, starring Victor Garber, Armelia McQueen, Zenobia, Paul Kreppel, and Richard Dunne. Subsequently it was optioned twice for Broadway production, once by John Michael Tebelak, a creator of Godspell, but has yet to reach the Broadway stage. Its music blends Berstein and Motown, just as its story mingles the myths of Peter Pan and Dracula.
