One Day, a rebooted adaptation of Michael Sottile’s cult musical Inappropriate, is heading off-Broadway! Sottile has updated the show and will helm the production with choreographer Ray Leeper. The tuner will begin previews on February 7, 2015 and officially open on February 19 at 3LD Art & Technology Center.
The cast includes Brenna Bloom, Chase O’Donnell, Marco Ramos, Honey Ribar, Aaron Scheff, Austin Scott, Benjamin Shuman, Andy Spencer, Aliya Stuart, Nyseli Vega and Charlotte Mary Wen.
Based on true journal entries written by teens spanning two decades, One Day follows the journey of eight teenagers as they face struggles and triumphs—from drug abuse to sexual awakening—on the passage to discovering their own truths.
One Day is inspired by Sottile’s 1999 show Inappropriate, for which he wrote the music & lyrics, and co-conceived with the late Lonnie McNeil. Inappropriate debuted off-Broadway and in Los Angeles in 1999-2000.
The production will feature interactive projection design by Andrew Lazarow, with lighting design by Jason Lyons, sound design by Drew Levy, scenic design by Ellen Rousseau and costume design by Shane Ballard, with vocal arrangements by AnnMarie Milazzo and music direction by Keith Harrison.
