Newsical Nominated for a Drama Desk award for Outstanding Musical Revue


The Drama Desk Awards, which are given annually in a number of categories, are the only major New York theater honors for which productions on Broadway, Off-Broadway and Off-Off Broadway compete against each other in the same category. Formed in 1949 by a group of New York theater critics, editors, reporters, and publishers, the organization was born out of the desire to educate the community on vital issues concerning the theater.

"Celebrity standing in America is ridiculous; Crom's songs inject a healthy dose of hilarity to a crazed media landscape. And he is aided by four amazing performers: Christine Pedi, Christina Bianco, Michael West and John Walton West; their collective range is impressive."
