Regional satirists Compton & Bennett announce their exclusive affiliation with Douglas Gray of Gray Matters Presents as producer and manager of Assisted Living: The Musical™.
Douglas Gray has a lifetime of experience in theater production. His credentials include Late Nite Catechism, Tony n' Tina's Wedding, Shear Madness in Seattle and Portland, the Jackie Wilson Story at the world famous Apollo Theatre in Harlem and an opera with Elizabeth Swados. Production management engagements include years of touring with Harry Belafonte, Twyla Tharp and John Houseman's The Acting Company. Most recently Gray served as Vice President of Entertainment for Norwegian Cruise Lines where he planned the theatres and programmed its newest vessel, the Norwegian EPIC.
Recognizing talent seems to run in the family. Gray quips that it was his parents' $330 investment in a yet-to-be produced 1960 Off-Broadway musical that put him through college. That musical? The Fantasticks.
"I love Assisted Living: The Musical™," Gray says. "It's hard to decide if Rick and Betsy are more talented as writers or performers. This show has a big future and South West Florida has seen it first."
Gray's strategy for Assisted Living: The Musical™ is two-step: first, expand the current performance calendar beyond Southwest and Central Florida and its summer tour of the Northeast; and second, license the script and score across the nation so that everyone in America will be singing the Viagra Medley.
Along with the new Gray Matters Presents relationship, Compton & Bennett also gain representation by Rojas Talent Group of Miami Florida. Rojas' corporate clients include NBC, IBM, AT&T. The agency works with Holland America Line, Carnival Cruise Line, Princess Cruises, and also the Seminole Tribe of Florida, and the Miccosukee Tribe of Florida. For booking information call Edwin Rojas 888 898-0908.
