New year, new cast member! Social media creator Melissa Becraft, renowned for her digital presence and dance-focused content, will join Cost n' Mayor and Hideaway Circus' 11 to Midnight, a theatrical dance experience. Becraft will be part of the cast for a limited engagement starting March 26.
Directed by Lyndsay Magid Aviner and created with choreography by the viral dance duo Cost n’ Mayor (Austin and Marideth Telenko), 11 to Midnight tells its story through a blend of iconic pop hits and the unexpected musical rhythms of everyday life, set to original compositions. The real-life couple Cost n’ Mayor have built a viral following on TikTok and Instagram. After a global search, they are joined onstage by previously announced company members Brendon Chan, Kati Simon, Ache Richardson, Makenzie Olsen, Tyson Hill, and swings Kristalyn Gill and Jake Urban.
The creative team features scenic design by Arnel Sancianco, costume design by Barbara Erin Delo, lighting design by Tony winner Jeff Croiter and Sean Beach, sound design by Ben Scheff, and special effects by Tony winner Jeremy Chernick. The score includes original compositions by Jacob Aviner, Spencer Novich, and Steve Toulmin.
11 to Midnight unfolds during one unforgettable hour at a New Year’s Eve apartment party somewhere in the city, where the music is loud, the lights are soft, and time feels like it’s had a glass of champagne too many. Resolutions are made (and some forgotten), emotions arise unexpectedly, and the future? Well, let’s see what happens this time next year!
11 to Midnight is playing at the Orpheum Theatre through April 19.
