History

The company was founded by Greg MacKellan and Stephanie Rhoads in 1993.[2] It has presented the American premiere of musical scores by Jerome Kern (Three Sisters and The Cabaret Girl) and Johnny Mercer (The Good Companions). 42nd Street Moon also produced the first American revivals of Rodgers & Hart's 1926 musical Peggy-Ann and André Previn's Coco.[citation needed] For its first 15 seasons, the company presented its productions as staged concerts.[3] In 2008, it began to produce "fully staged" musicals, with costumes and choreography.[4] For example, the production of Strike Up the Band in 2011 had choreography by Alex Hsu and costumes reviewed as "to-die-for 1920s attire" by Scarlett Kellum.[5]

Two of 42nd Street Moon's productions have been recorded as Cast albums: Cole Porter's Something for the Boys and Leave it to Me. Both represent the first full English language records for either of these two musicals, with Leave It to Me being sponsored in part by the National Endowment for the Arts.[citation needed] Videos of most of 42nd Street Moon's productions are available for viewing at the Museum of Performance & Design in San Francisco.[citation needed]

Artistic Director MacKellan has led developed several musical salons, each dedicated to exploring and celebrating the work of some of Broadway's greatest songwriters. In 2013, Once In Love With Loesser was performed, in celebration of Frank Loesser and built around the three stages of his career: as a Tin Pan Alley lyricist, then working in Hollywood, and finally as a Broadway songwriter.[6] MacKellan retired from Moon in June, 2016.
