BOTTLE SHOCK! THE MUSICAL Industry Reading AnnouncedThe new musical features book, music and lyrics by writing team James D Sasser and Charles Vincent Burwell.
CCAE Theatricals and the California Center for the Arts, Escondido, will host a private industry reading of Bottle Shock! The Musical on Saturday, May 14 and Sunday, May 15, 2022.
The work features book, music, and lyrics by writing team James D Sasser and Charles Vincent Burwell. The reading will be directed by J. Scott Lapp (The Prince of Egypt, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Bonnie & Clyde) with musical direction by Vadim Feichtner (The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, Falsettos), casting by Lindsay Brooks and stage management by Shayne Mim.
The reading will feature Jeff Skowron (Broadway's Enron, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, The Lion King) as Steven Spurrier; T.J. Mannix (Radio City Christmas Spectacular, All My Children, One Life to Live, As the World Turns) as Jim Barrett; Patrick Ortiz (Broadway's Mamma Mia, West Side Story, For the Record) as Gustavo Brambilla; Garrett Clayton (Teen Beach Movie, Hairspray Live, King Cobra) as Bo Barrett; Emma Degerstedt (Off Broadway's Desperate Measures, Smokey Joe's Cafe revival) as Samantha Fulton; and Joanna Carpenter (King's Blade, Apple TV's We Crashed) as Jo Fagnani. The company includes Reanne Acasio, Michael Cavinder, Sarah Errington, Craig McEldowney, Katie Porter and Wendy Rosoff
1976. Before Napa was synonymous with wine. Jim Barrett's new winery is struggling, and he's got a troubled relationship with his 20s something son, Bo. Meanwhile aspiring Mexican-American winemaker Gustavo, and UC Davis Enology grad student Samantha, chart their own course against discrimination and the odds. When stuffy English sommelier Spurrier shows up looking for contenders for his "Judgment of Paris" - a blind wine tasting competition - everyone's skeptical. At the urging of Bo, Samantha, and Gus, Jim's Chardonnay is included, and when it unexpectedly beats the French, their little valley and the world of wine will never be the same.
Bottle Shock! The Musical is based on the movie Bottle Shock; story by Ross Schwartz & Lannette Pabon and Jody Savin & Randall Miller; screenplay by Jody Savin & Randall Miller and Ross Schwartz. The movie starred Alan Rickman, Bill Pullman, Chris Pine, Rachel Taylor, Freddy Rodriguez, Eliza Dushku, and remains one of the top streamed wine-centric films of all time. The musical was first developed at Ars Nova in New York with director Kent Nicholson. It subsequently had a 29-hour workshop and staged reading with FOGG Theatre Company at Z Space in San Francisco, a weeklong writer's residency supported by the Napa Film Festival, and the following summer was presented in concert at The Lincoln Theater for the Napa Film Festival. It then had a two-night staged concert presentation at the Napa Opera House.
