Midnight At The Never Get
MIDNIGHT AT THE NEVER GET
Midnight At The Never Get features a book and a sultry score by Mark Sonnenblick (2018 Recipient of Jonathan Larson Grant) fashioned after the American Songbook, and imagines two men who never existed at a time that very much did. Trevor Copeland and Arthur Brightman have the perfect New York romance. That’s swell - but in 1965 it’s also against the law. So in the back room of The Never Get, an illegal Greenwich Village gay bar, they put together a show called “Midnight,” a queer nightclub act where Arthur writes love songs for Trevor to sing to a man. But as they hurtle towards the end of the decade and tensions in the Village reach a breaking point, the lovers find themselves caught in a relationship they cant control and a movement they don’t understand. Mark Cortale (Producer) co-produced the critically acclaimed new Off-Broadway debut of Midnight At The Never Get at The York Theatre in fall of 2018, which recently received 2 Drama Desk and 3 Lucille Lortel Award nominations including Best Musical.
