Jeffrey James Binney, Serena Brook, Andrew Kober, Alyse Alan Louis, Tori Scott, Marcus Stevens, Emma Tattenbaum Fine, Sam Tedaldi, Sally Wilfert, and Alex Wyse will perform in a reading of the musical Yo, Vikings! Jason Blitman will direct the reading, which is part of York Theatre Company’s Developmental Reading Series, and will be presented Wednesday, August 3 at 7pm.
Featuring book and lyrics by Marcus Stevens with music by Sam Willmott, the piece is based on Judith Byron Schachner’s award-winning book of the same name and the true story that inspired it. It tells the mini-saga musical of Emma Katz, a spunky and passionate little girl who is assigned to report on Erik the Red for World Discovery Day, and begins to channel her inner Viking, setting off on a fantastic adventure of self-discovery.
Music direction will be by Joseph Church.
