The Half Moon Theatre Company & Electrik Goddess Orquestra
The Half Moon Theatre Company is an innovative community-based theatre company founded in 2008 and directed by lisa roma. Lisa collaborated musically with Rob Darnell from Dec. 2006 thru Jan. 2012, creating and performing under the directorship of Rob Darnell's Poetic Notion Chorus and lisa's Electrik Goddess Orquestra. Together they performed the music of Laura Nyro, Marvin Gaye, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, Joni Mitchell, John Lennon, The Beatles, Sly Stone, The Isley Brothers and other contemporary giants, as well as showcasing their own original musical theatre productions, such as Rustic Shadow on a Summer Tree and more. Under Half Moon, they also hosted The Half Moon Artist Series at their long time musical home base, Manhattan's own University of the Streets, moving on to Brooklyn based Puppets Jazz Bar, and Two Moon Art House and Cafe.
Over the years, lisa has performed under her Electrik Goddess Orquestra with other musical friends and local artist acquaintences, singing original music and jazz covers. Lisa is working on her original musical theatre project. This labor of love is going to need seed funding and pre and post production funds to be performed locally and used in our Creative Educational Programming as a community school based project. We will also pitch it to Broadway or off-Broadway houses. The Half Moon Theatre Company is currently seeking donations to assist with this endeavor.
We are seeking to audition new members for The Half Moon Theatre Company and Electrik Goddess Orquestra to perform original music and innovative arrangements of popular music, urban contemporary and American songbook, musical theatre and jazz classics. To listen to the original songs of lisa roma, go to www.myspace.com/electrikgoddess, or www.soundcloud.com/electrikgoddess. To audition, please contact lisa online or by phone. Include a link to your music or a soundclip.
If you are interested in making a tax-deductible donation, feel free to contact rev. lisa roma to discuss the details of her project. Donations are made to our fiscal sponsor, We, The World, a nonprofit 501 (c) (3). Please make checks payable to We, The World and indicate in check memo for The Half Moon Theatre Company. We are seeking a building thru which to provide a home for our artists to live, create and work, as well as funding for the pre-production, rehearsal, performance, recording and post-production of our musical theatre project (see GODDESS HOUSE).
