Producing company New Make Do would like to announce an industry presentation of WALKER IN BABYLON, a musical immersion experience that will have two readings March 19th at The Monkey Space. The cast includes Caissie Levy (Sheila in HAIR, WICKED), David Larsen (BILLY ELLIOT, GOOD VIBRATIONS), Asmeret Ghebremichael (LEGALLY BLONDE, SPAMALOT), and recording artist and cast member of last year's cancelled GODSPELL, Celisse Henderson.
Music and lyrics written by David Reiser, book by Jimmy Ray Bennett. WALKER IN BABYLON is produced by New Make Do and general managed by Martian Entertainment (ALTAR BOYZ, Broadway's upcoming BARE, THE TEMPERAMENTALS). The first presentation of WALKER took place in July '09 at the 45th Street Theatre.
WALKER IN BABYLON is an immersion experience, combining a dance club atmosphere, hip-hop beats, and constant multimedia stimulation to engage audiences in an epic story of a society obsessed with instant connection. In a style reminiscent of THE DONKEY SHOW or FUERZA BRUTA, Walker in Babylon re-imagines how an audience experiences live entertainment and invites spectators to take an active role in an evening of personal connection and multimedia celebration.
New Make Do is a commercial theatre company established by Logan Lipton and David Reiser to imagine, develop, and produce engaging populist entertainment from the ground up. Focusing on the organic infusion of extensive multimedia into live performance, their aim is to utilize a consistent group of dedicated artists and business people to create sustainable commercial entertainment.
