The real challenge is just not understanding what these technologies do, but how to use them. Lois Whitman-Hess decided to start this blog because she feels it is important for the 55 plus crowd to be aware of an ever changing digital world. It takes a long time to bring a show to Broadway but count on me for house seats for when Lucie is in Pippin at the current time as well. Ron wrote the music, Chuck wrote the lyrics, Lissa Levin, wrote the book, and Lucie Arnaz directed the reading. She will enthrall audiences year after year. She has appeared in a number of Broadway shows, but the role of Hazel was made with her in mind. There is no question in my mind that the Broadway audience is going to go wild for the star of the show, Klea Blackhurst. It was magical to watch that period in life reappear. It was a time when children used their imagination during playtime and mommies were just starting to understand the role of a wife who also wanted to be a working woman. There was no internet, no cell calls, no apps, and no mobile devices to clutter our brains. I think the reason that most people truly enjoyed the musical so much was because it took place in much simpler times. We went to their reading today which received a roaring standing ovation from the Broadway community. I want to divert from the world of technology one more time so I can congratulate my good friends, Chuck Steffan and Ron Abel, on their upcoming Broadway Show, Hazel, a musical maid in America. I know that I have focused my attention on many of my Moroccan experiences and other recent activities. I promise that I will return to what’s new in the world of technology tomorrow. Fundraising starts and the marketing begins. T he insiders debriefed after two workshops. She is widely recognized for her $30 million contribution to the City of Miami’s Performing Arts Center, now known as the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts.

We were told that we absolutely couldn’t take pictures during the workshop, so this is what I could sneak in. ![]() The book was written by Lissa Levin and the show was directed by Lucie Arnaz. Ron is the musical composer and arranger and Chuck is the lyricist. Our friends, Ron Abel and Chuck Steffan, licensed the rights to Hazel from the Key family. The TV show itself was based on the popular single-panel comic strip by cartoonist Ted Key, which appeared in the Saturday Evening Post. The TV series, of the same name, aired from September 28, 1961, to April 11, 1966. Hazel is a musical about a fictional live-in maid named Hazel Burke and her employers, the Baxters. This video could be the start of something big.Įliot and I have been behind closed doors for the last two days with all of the folks involved in bringing Hazel to Broadway. He also was the recipient of a 2015 Tony nomination for Best Choreography for his Broadway debut in ON THE TOWN. The story was written by Lissa Levin and Joshua Bergasse, well known for his work on NBC’s SMASH, will direct and choreograph. Our good friends Ron Abel, composer and musical arranger and Chuck Steffan, lyricist, are the original creators of the show. The New York Times mentioned Hazel yesterday in an article that talked about how Chicago is becoming a sophisticated show-going town before Broadway. Hazel is debuting out-of-town at the The Drury Lane Theatre in Oakbrook, IL. The show is based on the character from the Saturday Evening Post comic strip, and the 1960’s TV comedy series starring Shirley Booth. The video is an interview with the creators. I thought I would share this video of Hazel, a musical maid in America, because it shows the humble beginnings of what could possibly be a Tony award winner. It’s not often that you get to see the makings of a Broadway Show.
