Broadway Records announces the Ultimate Cast Recording of The Big One-Oh. The new musical by Dean Pitchford, Doug Besterman and Timothy Allen McDonald.
Charley Maplewood has never been one for parties – that would require friends, which he doesn’t have. Well, unless you count his monster friends, but they’re only imaginary. But now that he’s turning ten—the big one-oh—he decides to throw a birthday party for himself, complete with a “House of Horrors” theme. Of course, things don’t work out as he plans. Will Charley be able to pull it together before the big one-oh… becomes the big OH-NO!?
Based on the beloved book, The Big One-Oh! features lyrics by Academy Award-winner Dean Pitchford (author of the novel, Footloose), music by the acclaimed Tony-nominated Doug Besterman (Elf, Young Frankenstein), and a book by iTheatric’s award-winning playwright Timothy Allen McDonald (Roald Dahl’s Willy Wonka, James and the Giant Peach).
The cast of the Ultimate Cast Recording includes two-time Tony Award winner Christian Borle, Derek Klena, Patti Murin, Brittney Mack, Michael James Scott and introduces Jaxon Daniel and Emmy Woodard. Rounding out the cast are Claudia Bennett, Hatty King, Scott Nelson, Mason Risser, Amber Trottman, Elle Wesley, Riley West and Emma Rose Williamson.
The Big One-Oh is now available on all digital outlets and the official site.
