Description
On Mon, Nov 18 at 8:30pm, join the cast of “#HASH(TAG) AMERICA” at Catalina Jazz Club in heart of Hollywood!
#Hash(tag) America is a new theatrical musical, an urgent urban rock concert, and a soul stirring personal testimonial all rolled into one powerful explosion of sound, youth, diversity and truth. Set against original musical collaborations by Anthony Fedorov and other artists, this inspirational new musical explores true stories of social justice, gender identity, race, immigration, and economic inequalities within the fabric of the American experience.
Said Fedorov, “In the wake of our current political climate and as an immigrant myself, I felt like I had to do something. I started writing songs about racism, gun violence, and discrimination, and creating a show that will hopefully bring people together in these difficult times. We can no longer avoid these conversations.”
Joining Anthony Fedorov (American Idol, Rent), Isa Briones (Star Trek: Picard, Hamilton), and Eden Espinosa (Falsettos, Wicked, Rent) will be Kyle Carter (The Lion King, In the Heights), Christina Sajous (SpongeBob SquarePants, Spiderman, American Idiot), and Heath Saunders (Alice By Heart, Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert on FOX).
The show’s creators are excited to introduce the project to the West Coast as they prepare for a workshop presentation in early 2020 co-directed as a docu-musical by David Armstrong (Scandalous, 5th Avenue Theatre), and Shidan Majidi (Me, The “Other” documentary, Yank!, Cameron Mackintosh Ltd). Associate producers are project co-conceiver Jennifer Paz (Steven Universe, Miss Saigon) and Louis Hobson/Indie Theatrical.
The Los Angeles presentation of #Hash(tag) America creative team includes co-direction by David Armstrong and music arrangements by Rick Hip-Flores (Ain’t Too Proud, In Transit), additional lyrics by Kyle Carter, and musical direction by singer-songwriter AJ Rafael.
