Spend a little time with SWEET CHARITY. The dance-filled, groovy musical comedy inspired by Federico Fellini’s Nights of Cabiria, SWEET CHARITY explores the turbulent love life of Charity Hope Valentine, a hopelessly romantic but comically unfortunate dance hall hostess in New York City. With a tuneful, cool, mid-1960s score by Cy Coleman (Little Me, City of Angels, Barnum), sparkling lyrics by Dorothy Fields (Annie Get Your Gun, Seesaw, Redhead), and a hilarious book by Neil Simon, SWEET CHARITY captures all the energy, humor, and heartbreak of Life in the Big City for an unfortunate but irrepressible optimist.
We used more than 50 LED Panels to create backdrops for the scenes and motion graphics for all of the songs. There are a number of locations in addition to the titles and effects for this stage classic.
“Sweet Charity” boasts Marriott Theatre's consistently superb production values. The likely award-winning element is the vibrant Video Design by Anthony Churchill.” - Northwest Herald
