The Sedona International Film Festival proudly presents the premier of Rockabye Worlds, a live one-man modern musical written and composed by Paolo Scardina at the Mary D Fisher Theater on Saturday, July 3 at 4:00 and 7:00 p.m.
Rockabye Worlds is performed by Paolo Scardina, an accomplished pianist, vocalist, composer, songwriter, and choreographer, who enacts the roles of seven characters, while playing live on a magical music box, a stage piano! This musical creation integrates the artforms of songwriting, composing, piano playing, acting and choreography into a one-man show that audiences rarely see, in a contemporary jazz style that will make you smile out loud and weep with wonder.
The musical tells the story of a young boy named Vinny, who slips into the world of slumber to discover his future through the charm of an imaginary friend. Once there, he sees his life unfold from childhood to adulthood, but always through the mind’s eye of an innocent child, unaffected by the trappings of real life. He sees beyond the world as we know it as he confronts the hurdles of his life in pursuit of genuine friendships and lasting love. Don’t miss this amazing musical!
Tickets for the show are $25 in advance and $30 at the door. All tickets include a Q&A with Paolo Scardina on stage after the show.
