MARA The Musical Comes To Life, Right Here in St. George, Utah!
– By James McFadden –
“There is an old legend about the sea, men still tell where ‘er they be. She once was a beauty, lived on the land, lovely and lively when she met the man.”
Written by Tamara Smith, a resident of St. George, Utah. MARA The Musical is a wildly passionate ‘original musical’ that is about to take southern Utah by storm.
St. GEORGE, UT – Folks like you and me, rarely have an opportunity to be the first to ever see and be mesmerized by an original play, set to an original score, along with a cast of performers who are all headed straight for Broadway. MARA is an original story, never before experienced by an audience. It is something new and fresh that is certain to take you on a journey and you have an opportunity to be one of the very first people to ever hear the tale.
Mara The Musical is set to debut at The Electric Theater here in St. George, Utah, on Friday, November 26th, 2021 (The night after Thanksgiving). It boasts a cast and crew of over 50 performers and support staff who have all leaped at the chance to be one of the first performers to bring this story to the stage. There were no auditions held for this new story, each performer was handpicked and individually invited to be a part of this amazing production, including yours truly. Yea, that’s right, I’m excited and honored to say, I will be one of MARA’s original cast of performers.
Most notably, performing in this compelling story of men and their love-torn relationships between the women they love and the ocean that beacons them, is Rachel Cox as MARA. Rachel has toured and performed throughout the U.S. and abroad, including performances in Canada, South Africa, and Western Europe. Rachel is joined on stage by Tyson Chanticleer as Shane, a wayfaring sea captain who’s obsessed with the legend of MARA; a woman who once walked on the land but for whom the gods cursed and cast into the ocean to await true love so she can be free. And, with almost 50 performers, there just isn’t room enough to mention everyone just yet, but fear not, we shall endeavor to introduce you to each and every one of them over the next four weeks as we gear up to bring this amazing story to life!
MARA The Musical can be enjoyed starting on November, 26th, 2021 with only 11 performances in total making December 11th, the last day to see this incredible story. For more information please visit their website at www.marathemusical.com. And stay tuned as we spend the next four weeks introducing you to the performers and giving you a peek into what is sure to become one of the most revered stories of all time…
