The Off-Beat Players, a Greenwich-based inclusive theater company for young adults that features performers with and without disabilities, are making their New York City concert debut.
On Wednesday, July 9, The Green Room 42 presents “The Off-Beat Players and Friends: A Celebration of Disability and Neurodivergence”. Performing alongside some of the company’s veteran performers will be stars of the Broadway musical, “How to Dance in Ohio”, the first Broadway musical with openly Autistic actors playing Autistic characters. This special one night event is an evening that features songs of hope, strength, and triumph.
The Off-Beat Players was founded in 2001 by Kim Malara. The Off-Beat Players have grown to be a company of over fifty members who work both in the performing arts and technical theatre, including young adults from Greenwich High School, The Convent of the Sacred Heart, Brunswick, Greenwich Academy and Greenwich Country Day School. Recent productions include “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat”, “Seussical”, “Godspell” and the upcoming “Pippin”.
The Green Room 42 recently celebrated its landmark six-year anniversary as Broadway’s premiere destination for live music, nightclub performances, and special events. The space lets audiences experience shows featuring Broadway’s biggest names
and emerging talent up close and personal, with a hip, funky vibe, food and beverage served table-side during shows.
Over the past five years, the venue has been host to some of the biggest names in show business, like Lillias White, Josh Groban, Sara Bareilles, Tina Fey, Katharine McPhee, Bowen Yang, Bette Midler, and Judy Kuhn.
