Little Tramp
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Little Tramp is a musical based on the life of Charles Chaplin, with a book by David Pomeranz and Steven David Horwich and music and lyrics by David Pomeranz.
In 1992, in order to create interest in a staged production, Pomeranz gathered together what he referred to as his "dream cast" and recorded a CD of the score. Artists participating in the project included Petula Clark, Lea Salonga, Tim Curry, Mel Brooks, Treat Williams, and Peter Duncan as Chaplin. It was released on the Warner Music UK Ltd. label.
Little Tramp received its first staging at the prestigious Eugene O'Neill Theater Festival in Waterford, Connecticut during the 1995 summer season. The following year, a concert version was presented in St. Petersburg, Russia to inaugurate the world's first East/West Musical Theater Conference.
