The six-time Tony winner transforms into a “Pop Diva” to sing LaChiusa’s “Beyond the Moon.”
SPEAKproductions, in association with TBD Productions and Martian Entertainment, has released a sneak peek music video from the film adaptation of Michael John LaChiusa's musical Hello Again. The original song, "Beyond the Moon," was written for the film especially for six-time Tony Award winner Audra McDonald, who stars in the film opposite Martha Plimpton and Cheyenne Jackson.
In the original song "Beyond the Moon," set in 2002, Audra McDonald's character transforms into a "Pop Diva." The song features music by Michael John LaChiusa and lyrics by Michael John LaChiusa and Cory Krueckeberg. The "Beyond the Moon" single is available on iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, and all major digital retailers. The full soundtrack for Hello Again will be released later this year.
Hello Again chases 10 fleeting love affairs across 10 periods in New York City history. The pursued becomes pursuer as they spin through daisy-chained vignettes that come together in one soulful circle. Directed by Tom Gustafson, the film features a screenplay by Cory Krueckeberg and music and lyrics by Michael John LaChiusa. In addition to McDonald, Plimpton, and Jackson, the ensemble cast includes T.R. Knight, Rumer Willis, Jenna Ushkowitz, Tyler Blackburn, Sam Underwood, Nolan Gerard Funk, and Al Calderon.
