There have been many musical dynasties over the years, and we’ll be looking at one of them on this week’s Dress Circle (9/16 7:00 p.m.) when we look at the dynasty that began with Richard Rodgers, continued with his daughter Mary Rodgers, and is currently represented by Mary’s son, Adam Guettel. From Richard, we’ll hear a medley of many of his familiar songs arranged by Peter Nero. To represent Mary’s work, we’ll look at her musicals “Once Upon a Mattress” and “The Mad Show” along with a song she contributed to “Working.”
As a sample of Adam’s work, we’ll turn to his scores for “Light in the Piazza” and “Floyd Collins” because we’re sure we’ll be hearing much more from him.
