Gilligan’s Island: The Musical preview
June 5, 2008
, 2008
Regional premiere. Sherwood Schwartz, the original creator of the successful Gilligan's Island TV series, co-authored the book with his son and long-time collaborator Lloyd J. Schwartz, so audiences can be sure of a zany good time, complete with Gilligan fumbling any chance of a rescue! Throw in fun music and lyrics by Sherwood Schwartz's daughter and son-in-law, Hobe Juber and Laurence Juber (best known as a guitarist with Paul McCartney's group Wings), and the show is a natural for Rover Dramawerks and their "theatre off the beaten path" mission.
Preview is pay-what-you-can. Show officially opens June 6. Purchase tickets online or by calling 972-849-0358.
