100 Years of Broadway is two and a half hours of fun! ... Neil puts on these hit-filled concerts featuring a bevy of Broadway performers singing some of the theater's most well known tunes. It brought down the house, and it doesn't get much better than that." - Robert Diamond, Broadwayworld.com
NEIL Berg Composer/lyricist of the hit off-Broadway musical The Prince and the Pauper, which ran for two years at the Lamb's Theater in New York City. The New York Times described it as "...soaring on the wings of theatrical fun." Berg is currently writing the music for the Broadway bound musical Grumpy Old Men, based on the hit film. Two of Berg's new musicals have been selected for the prestigious New York Musical Theater Festival: The Man Who Would Be King, a musical realization of Rudyard Kipling's novella, and Tim and Scrooge, the sequel to A Christmas Carol. Rita Harvey starred recently as Hodel in the hit Broadway revival of Fiddler on the Roof with Rosie O'Donnell and Harvey Fierstein.
