Gutenberg! The Musical!
Diversionary Theatre
4545 Park Bl. San Diego
First there was Evita. Then there was Hamilton. And now comes ... Gutenberg! Both a loving tribute to and a biting satire of The Great American Musical, Gutenberg! The Musical! is a hilarious two-man spoof that tells the story of two aspiring playwrights trying to get funding for what they believe just might be the greatest show ever staged: a big, splashy song-and-dance spectacular about printing press inventor Johann Gutenberg. With an endless supply of charm and enthusiasm, and an abundance of bumbling idiocy, Bud and Doug sing the songs and play all the parts in their historical "epic," using only baseball caps to differentiate among the show's 30 characters. Developed at Upright Citizen's Brigade before becoming an off-Broadway hit, Gutenberg! now comes to Backyard Renaissance in residence at Diversionary Theatre in San Diego.
