Curtis Moore's musical Venice began performances at New York's Public Theater on May 28, and opens June 13th.

I'm so happy to be making my Broadway debut (as a composer) with Lucky Guy, starring Tom Hanks, which opened on April 1, 2013 (and is now extended through July)!
I had a lot of fun working on this video, with a song written by Alan Menken and Craig Carnelia. I arranged, produced, and recorded the audio, with cameos from Stephen Schwartz, Georgia Stitt, Chris Miller, Benj Pasek, Kait Kerrigan and Brian Lowdermilk. Jeremy Levine directed the video.
We're very excited to be part of the Johnny Mercer Writers Colony at Goodspeed Musicals this winter.
The National Alliance for Musical Theatre presented our original musical Triangle as part of their 24th Annual Festival of New Musicals in October. This was a great opportunity for us to share our show with theater professionals from New York and around the country. The cast included Bryce Ryness (Godspell, Hair), Wayne Wilcox (Chaplin), Adam Heller (Caroline or Change, Merrily We Roll Along), Margot Siebert, Dana Steingold, and Carrie Cimma.
I was extremely honored to receive the Best Composer Award from the faculty and visiting artists at the NYU/ASCAP Foundation TV & Film Scoring Workshop this past spring. The panel, including Sean Callery (24, Bones, Homeland) NYU film composer-in-residence Ira Newborn (Naked Gun, Blues Brothers) and Mark Snow (X-Files, Blue Bloods), called my cue "inventive, professional and striking by virtue of a remarkably colorful orchestration."
We're very excited that Triangle has been selected for this summer’s TheatreWorks New Works Festival in Palo Alto, one of the premiere developmental opportunities for new musicals. During an intensive two week workshop, Triangle will receive three public staged readings (August 12, 16 & 18) directed by Meredith McDonough and featuring an amazing cast of New York and Bay Area actors.

"Venice is [an] ambitious and expansive work, combining elements of Shakespeare, Greek tragedy, Brechtian allegory and dystopian political fable, all enhanced by rap narration and a melodic, rock-influenced score that is one of the most winning I have heard onstage in years."
Time Magazine, May 14, 2010
"Venice is hot. As is in: Emotionally hot. Musically hot. Star-quality hot."
Variety, October 18, 2010
"Venice, a sweaty amalgam of Shakespearean plotting, political allegory and hip-hop jam, is truly exciting at its frequent best."
Backstage, October 18, 2010
"it points the way to thrilling and remarkably fresh artistic directions for musical theater."
Kansas City Star, April 2010
"The production-heavy hip hop fused world premiere musical Venice thrills."

"Venice, the newest production at the Kansas City Repertory Theatre’s Copaken Stage, is a mashup of styles that works on so many levels."
KCFree Press, April 20, 2010
"It’s crude, raw, offensive, devastating … and completely brilliant."
The University News, April 26, 2010
"Venice is the quantum leap that has every potential to redraw the map of Kansas City theatre."
