Boothbay, Maine - The Boothbay Playhouse opens it's summer season on May 23 with a high energy variety show - Boothbay LIVE!.  Directed and choreographed by Emily Mirabile, this show features local talent of all ages.  It will showcase some favorite numbers from previous Playhouse shows, such as "Close Every Door To Me" from Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and "Sit Down You're Rockin The Boat" from Guys And Dolls.  There will be a sneak peek at each of the shows that are coming up this summer with a medley from South Pacific, the song "No More" from Into The Woods, and "In Whatever Time We Have" from Children Of Eden.  Over 20 numbers from both Broadway and popular music will be performed, along with a brand new number from composer Aaron Robinson.  A special guest will be on hand for each of the three performances.  With over 35 people in the cast it's a "feel good" extravaganza to kick off the season in style!
