Striking 12 @ New Stage Collective

Location

‘Tis the season. Deal with it. NSC is proud to bring back its 2007 hip holiday hit Striking 12, the refreshingly alternative holiday rock musical that describes itself as “a holiday show for people who don’t like holiday shows.” With an innovative team of creators that include Tony Award-winner Rachel Sheinkin (The 25th…Spelling Bee) and the celebrated pop-rock band GrooveLily, Striking 12 is a unique hybrid of musical theatre and live concert. It tells the story of a grumpy, overworked New Yorker who resolves to spend New Year’s Eve alone in his apartment when an unexpected visitor brings some much-needed cheer. The evening springs to life through an eclectic GrooveLily score that combines pop, rock, jazz, showtunes and more with a healthy dose of 21st-century skepticism and old-fashioned-uplift. Alan Patrick Kenny leads a cast of actor-musicians in NSC’s production of this sell-out Off-Broadway hit.

“I suspect Striking 12 might be a show people will want to see more than once – it’s simultaneously a good concert and an engaging piece of theatre. What’s more, it’s something different for the holidays. Guys who say they don’t like theatre can take their dates to this one, and everyone will have a good time.”

-CityBeat

“Thoroughly winning! More artfully crafted and engaging than virtually all the standard-mold musicals these days. Alive with wit and humor.”

-The New York Times
