What is Goddess Wheel?

"What is Goddess Wheel?" you, out in cyber space, might be asking yourself. Well, I have the answer!

Goddess Wheel is a new musical inspired by Aristophanes' anti-war play Lysistrata, with music by Galt MacDermot (Hair, Two Gentlemen of Verona) and Book and Lyrics by Matty Selman (Young Rube, Steeplechase the Funny Place, Uncle Philip's Coat), which will have its world premiere at the Snug Harbor Cultural Center on Staten Island this spring.

The show is being produced by Wagner College Theatre with an amazing cast of students led by their director (and head of dance for the college) Rusty Curcio.

I'm Paige, the assistant director for the production, and with this blog (and our tumblr page) Mary -one of our assistant stage managers- and myself hope to show the process of how the show develops between now and opening night (April 18)! Along the way you'll get to meet our amazing cast, our incredible production team and get to see what goes on behind the scenes!

Stay Tuned!

  1. all the goddesses are one,they
    portray a woman yet to come
    (though not all protrayed
    correctly), whom the world
    shall deify,once she's dead
    and gone. But what she will
    bring to mankind, it shall
    live forever and bring her
    appreciation that reaches
    in time, forward and backwards
    (even as we experience, now,
    in part),though it would or
    has seemed to die upon a
    funneral pyer, during its
    ressurrected years, 1000,
    its remembrance shall not be
    abused or mis-worshiped by
    those enlightened, for He
    who is truly death but life,
    from the life giver, shall
    be known of His own.
