GREETINGS FROM YORKVILLE

A new Musical love story, written and performed by Anya Turner and Robert Grusecki and directed by two-time Tony Award winner Thommie Walsh, is about trying again, and again, and never giving up.

From their fifth-floor walkup in Yorkville, they set out to find the way through the chaotic world of showbiz. This musical is about the duo's desperate attempts to get their songs some recognition, whether by means of writing special material, recording CD's, or creating full-length musicals.Who Knows Productions will present GREETINGS FROM YORKVILLE with music and lyrics by Robert Grusecki, lyrics and book by Anya Turner.
