Pal Joey (2008, Matthew Risch)
Choose options
Richard Rodgers, Lorenz Hart, and John O'Hara’s classic 'Pal Joey' received a spectacular, multi-Tony-nominated Broadway revival at the Studio 54 arena in 2008 under the banner of the Roundabout Theatre Company. Featuring a newly revised, textually raw book script by Robert Horn, the jazz-infused backstage musical drama turns a gritty 1930s Chicago nightclub underbelly into a visceral psychological arena, tracking Joey Evans, an unprincipled, second-rate song-and-dance cad who manipulates a wealthy married socialite to fund his club. This specific tracking records the principal cast alignment starring Matthew Risch, who stepped into the title role alongside Stockard Channing.
