I LOVE A PIANO is the celebration of the music and lyrics of Irving Berlin. It follows the journey of a piano as it moves in and out of American lives from the turn of the century to the present. This all singing, all dancing valentine comes to vibrant life with over sixty of Irving Berlin’s most beloved songs, including classics such as “Blue Skies,” “There’s No Business Like Show Business,” “Puttin’ on the Ritz,” “Cheek to Cheek,” “Always,” “How Deep is the Ocean,” “Anything You Can Do,” “God Bless America,” and, of course, “I Love a Piano.” A fitting tribute to the man Jerome Kern famously said had “no place in American music - he is American music.”

PAUL ALLAN (Producer) has been producing the seasons here at Gateway longer then he cares to count. Not that he regrets any of it though – it just sometimes hard to believe the number of shows, performers, staff, technicians, etc. he has come in contact with over the years, and the number of personal and professional friendships that developed and remain strong today. Paul’s grandfather (Harry Pomeran) was the first producer of Gateway in 1950, followed by his uncle (David Sheldon), his parents (Ruth and Stan Allan), and together with his sister Robin. Gateway has always been a family business, and each era has brought significant challenges particularly in the 80’s and 90’s when shows became more complicated and technically challenging. Additionally, the grounds changed, the buildings were modernized, and the facilities updated. In the most recent decade, the caliber of the artistic staff, performers, musicians, and technicians has risen to a level equaling and sometimes surpassing many Broadway shows. It has been difficult to find time to do other projects outside of Gateway seasons, but over the years Paul has been able to work in NYC on various shows in different capacities, run a touring company with shows traveling around the country and abroad, operate a sister theatre in Connecticut, act as consultant and facilitator for the restoration and reopening of the Patchogue Theatre, and maintain a set rental business - where Gateway scenery is used in theatres across the country after appearing on the Gateway stage. Paul appreciates, admires and honors his family’s dedication to the arts and is proud to help continue the legacy. Paul lives in Bellport with his wife Annmarie and their 2 children - Luke 5 and Alexa 3.

Irving Berlin's 'Piano' is noteworthy at Gateway

By STEVE PARKS

June 23, 2010

 

If you love a good old-fashioned song, you'll probably fall for Irving Berlin's "I Love a Piano."

You can't get more patriotic than the Act I closer, "God Bless America," the unofficial national anthem and post-9/11 hymn. It's immediately preceded by the top-selling single of all time, "White Christmas," both written by the Jewish immigrant from Russia.

The show's loose story-line pastiches put 57 numbers in rough chronological order, making it all about the songs. An appealing cast ranging from young-love pairings (Kristen Maloney-Ryan Lammer and Ashley McKay-Jody Madaras) to a more mature couple (Deborah Tranelli-Christopher Vettel) sings and dances its way through this impressive chunk of Berlin's songbook without giving any tune the bum's rush.

No small feat, that, with a roster of songs everyone knows: "Alexander's Ragtime Band" shows off the hot licks of music director Justin Fischer's not-so-big band; "Puttin' on the Ritz," ironic in a Depression-era set; "Cheek to Cheek," with everyone ballrooming to director Bob Durkin's dreamy choreography; "Count Your Blessings Instead of Sheep," a wartime lullaby soothingly crooned by Vettel; "Easter Parade," led by an amusingly downscale Maloney and Lammer; "The Girl That I Marry," sung by Madaras, the sextet's hopeless romantic; a sassy "Anything You Can Do" by the younger foursome; a robust "There's No Business Like Show Business," introduced in been-there, done-that fashion by Tranelli, and McKay's reminiscent take on the title song.

The story, such as it is, revolves around a vintage 1910 piano with a broken key, which moves from Alexander's Music Shop to a Roaring '20s speakeasy, a 1930s Lower East Side street sale, a 1940s ballroom and a World War II canteen. And that's just the first act. The brisk Act II is confined to a postwar USO canteen, a junkyard and a 1950s summer stock theater during auditions for "Annie Get Your Gun."

It all plays out in front of set designer Brittany Loesch's huge piano-keyboard bandstand, scenes accented by Kim Hanson's mood lighting and period costumes by Jose Rivera that transport us from decade to decade.

Irving Berlin's great American career spanned most of the first six decades of the last century. But his songs never get old - or feel old as rejuvenated at Gateway.

Irving Berlin’s ‘I Love a Piano’
By: ROY BRADBROOK

June 18, 2010

Jerome Kern once commented that ‘Irving Berlin is America’s music’ and after seeing this wonderful show who could disagree! I could write this review in one sentence - Come and enjoy music that will make you feel romantic, happy and even sad at times and then happily drive home with those glorious melodies running through your mind.

But this would not do justice to the talents Gateway management have assembled and the skills of Ray Roderick and Michael Berkeley who conceived the idea of using the time frame of a grand old Steinway piano’s many and varied owners throughout the past hundred years to showcase over sixty of some of the greatest songs ever written.

Berlin lived for over a hundred years and wrote music for over sixty of them and his phenomenal output is reckoned in excess of fifteen hundred published songs, nineteen Broadway shows and sixteen films! Of the sixty plus songs in this tribute show, over thirty can without doubt be classed as all time hits that will be played around the world as long as music lasts. From his very first hit ‘Alexander’s Ragtime Band’, written in 1910, to the years that brought songs derived from his army life, including ‘God Bless America’ that was written at Camp Upton in Brookhaven, only a few miles from the Gateway theater, to classics in such as ‘Easter Parade’, ‘Putting on the Ritz’ and of course ‘White Christmas’ and then ‘Annie Get Your Gun’ and ‘Call Me Madam’ - the list seems almost endless.

Having the wonderful music is one thing but it needs talented performers to bring out all of the hidden depths in songs that were carefully crafted to tell a story and where, in many cases, the often lesser known verse is there to enhance the chorus of the song. Ryan Lammer, Jody Madaras, Kristen Maloney, Ashley Mckay, Deborah Tranelli and Christopher Vettel are very different as individuals and as singers but this is one of those great evenings where they really work as a team melding all of their talented voices and stagecraft together to effortlessly segue from one great and often well known and well loved song to the next with impeccable timing and they also show that they are no mean dancers. It is almost invidious to single out any particular scene or artist because the whole show was so good and well crafted but Deborah Tranelli tugged at the heart strings with a great bluesy rendition of the haunting, anti racial bigotry number, ‘Suppertime’ and in a totally different mood, Ryan Lammer and Kristen Maloney were hilarious as a couple of very ragged swells ready to march in the ‘Easter Parade’. Again the whole cast shone in the finale where the songs were written around a very unusual casting session.

Also this is an evening where the too oft forgotten musicians really have to be equally applauded with the soloists because the quality of the music that conductor and keyboard player Justin S. Fischer and his colleagues gave us brought the whole show to a peak of perfection that left the audience anxious for more, judging by the spontaneity and strength of the standing ovation everyone received on opening night.

This is a fun filled show that deserves to be a sell-out and I can only reiterate - Go and enjoy!

Irving Berlin revue offers a sizzling display at Gateway Playhouse
By LEE DAVIS
Jun 21, 2010

“I Love a Piano,” the Gateway’s current musical, is a sweet little revue that features six rewardingly talented singer/actor/dancers racing through 66—count ’em: 66—Irving Berlin melodies in slightly less than two hours.

It’s a sizzling display, played on a not-so-dazzling set composed of an oversize piano keyboard and a beat-up upright piano (in case you’ve forgotten the show’s title) and some projections.

The scene, despite its local credit to Brittany Loesch, looks a little the worse for wear from traveling, but the cast is far from frayed. It’s composed of young, spirited, impressive dancing personalities with nice voices, who, executing the wishes and dances of director choreographer Bob Durkin, do ample justice and no damage to a bursting bouquet of Irving Berlin standards. The backup, by an onstage combo led by musical director Justin Fletcher, is spirited and supportive.

The show proceeds chronologically, thanks to many costume changes and a few set pieces, from a 1910 music shop, through silent movies in the 1920s, Manhattan’s Lower East Side in the 1930s, a movie theater in the 1930s, a ballroom in the 1940s, the Stage Door Canteen during World War II and a “Midwest Summer Stock Theatre” that’s staging a production of “Annie Get Your Gun” in the 1950s.

Quite a trip, and quite a collection of sometimes intricately harmonized musical arrangements by Michael Berkely, who, with Ray Roderick, conceived and wrote the show.

For no discernible reason, each of the six actor/singer/dancers has been given a name, but forget it. What matters is the distinctive and applaudable way each individualizes his or her material. As an ensemble, they shine vocally in “I’ve Got My Love To Keep Me Warm” and “Cheek to Cheek,” and they dance up a storm in renditions of “Mandy,” “The Best Things Happen While You Dance,” a wild ’20s Charleston sequence, and an atmospheric 1930s marathon dance.

Ashley McKay is tall and blonde and lovely, and delivers a fine arrangement of “Alexander’s Ragtime Band” and, with the other girls, a touching “I Got Lost in His Arms” in the “Annie Get Your Gun” sequence.

Christopher Vettel, given the role of the older man, has a fine rich voice, which he puts to good use in the jaunty “Two Cheers Instead of Three,” “Let’s Face the Music,” and a touching “Count Your Blessings.”

Ryan Lammer has a fine voice, too, put to good use in “Steppin’ Out with My Baby,” and “Change Partners.” Jody Madras is a sparkling personality who scores with “When the Midnight Choo Choo leaves for Alabam’” and, with Mr. Vittell, in “Steppin’ Out With My Baby.”

Deborah Tranelli has a lush, lovely vocal delivery, which she uses rewardingly in “Change Partners,” and particularly “Suppertime,” the song Berlin wrote for Ethel Waters, portraying a wife whose husband had been lynched, in “As Thousands Cheer,” but which works well in ”I Love a Piano” as a song sung by a woman who’s lost a husband in World War II.

My favorite cast member is Kirsten Maloney, a constantly perky, dynamite dancer with an endlessly mobile face, ecstatic with Ryan Lammer as they float through “The Best Things Happen While You Dance,” or mugging adorably with Mr. Lammer in my favorite number of the evening, Act II’s “We’re a Couple of Swells.”

Well, how can you feel unkindly or even without a smile at a show that contains at least a few of everyone’s favorite Berlin tunes, and has as its 11 o’clock number “There’s No Business Like Show Business”? It all adds up to a mindless but by no means heartless musical evening.

“I Love a Piano” continues at the Gateway Playhouse in Bellport every evening but Monday and with several weekly matinees through July 3.The box office number is 286-1133.
