In this reading event, Lindsay Mendez, Katrina Lenk, Andrew Barth Feldman, and other Broadway stars read an unpublished musical by composer Michael Friedman--Stranger. Friedman, whose archive is preserved by the Billy Rose Theatre Division, was an American theater composer and lyricist. Best known for works such as Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson and The Fortress of Solitude, Friedman died tragically at age 41, before some of his works ever saw the stage. Stranger, with a book and lyrics by Micah Schraft, and directed by Trip Cullman, tells the story of a family who is visited by a beautiful and seductive young man. When the Stranger vanishes as mysteriously as he appeared, the lives of each family member are changed forever. Director: Trip Cullman Music Director: Jacinth Greywoode Cast: Andrew Barth Feldman (Broadway: Dear Evan Hansen, Film: No Hard Feelings), Valeria Ceballos, Katrina Lenk (Broadway: The Band's Visit, Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, Once, and Indecent), Lindsay Mendez (Broadway: Carousel, Wicked, Godspell, Grease), David Rasche, Leslie Rodriguez Kritzer, Analise Scarpaci, Will Swenson
