Lyrics by
Fred Ebb
starring
Liza Minnelli and Chita Rivera
John Kander and Fred Ebb (Cabaret,
Chicago, Kiss Of The Spider Woman) wrote this powerful musical with award
winning playright Terrence McNally. It is about the complex and bittersweet
relationship between a mother and a daughter who are trying to stitch
their lives back together again. This great cult score includes COLORED
LIGHTS, THE APPLE DOESN'T FALL, MARRY ME and ALL THE CHILDREN IN A ROW.
The dramatic and forceful story of THE RINK won much admiration both on
Broadway and in the West End of London for it's biting lyrics, scintillating
music and wonderful punchy orchestrations. Set in a decaying family roller
rink in New York, this critically acclaimed musical played for over a
year on Broadway. This great score has a variety of musical style; from
glitzy big band numbers climaxing in a Janis Joplin style song (ALL THE
CHILDREN IN A ROW) which manages to encompass the entire social history
of America in the 1960's.
Broadway legends and super stars, Liza Minnelli and Chita Rivera give
the performance of their lives. which won a Tony Award for Chita Rivera
for the first time in her career.
