The one-act musical "Lavender Girl" (one of the
segments of URBAN MYTHS, John's full length musical), with
songs by John and a book by Los Angeles playwright James Waedekin,
has become a part of a show called 3HREE. Put together by
famed Broadway director Harold Prince, the evening features
3 short musicals, each by a different writing team and a different
director (the third piece is directed by Mr. Prince himself.)
The “Lavender Girl” segment is directed by Scott
Schwartz, who has been involved with URBAN MYTHS since its
inception. 3HREE had its first production at the Prince Theater
in Philadelphia (John's birthplace) in the fall of 2000 where
it got rave reviews in both the local papers and the New York
Times. It had a second production at the Ahmanson Theater
in Los Angeles. A
cast album on DRG Records is now available through this website.
