"Everyday Rapture"

Starring

Sherie Rene Scott

New York, NY (4/27/10) – Ghostlight Records will release the original cast recording of Everyday Rapture, the much raved about musical (that orginally premiered Off-Broadway) co-written by and starring Sherie Rene Scott. Beginning today, Tuesday, April 27th, the cast recording will be available on iTunes, on the Ghostlight/Sh-K-Boom website (www.sh-k-boom.com) and at Roundabout Theatre Company’s American Airlines Theatre, where Everyday Rapture is currently in previews for an opening on Thursday night. The CD will be available in-stores in early June (exact date to be announced shortly). Roundabout Theatre Company’s Broadway production of Everyday Rapture is co-written by Dick Scanlan and directed by Michael Mayer.

Everyday Rapture is the story of a young woman's psycho-sexual-spiritual journey on the rocky path that separates her mostly Mennonite past from her mostly Manhattan future. Everyday Rapture features an enchantingly eclectic selection of songs made famous by David Byrne, Roberta Flack, Mister Rogers, The Supremes, and Judy Garland. The New York Times said of Everyday Rapture “it’s the kind of show this city hasn’t seen since Bette Midler last played Radio City Musical Hall. It easily qualifies as one of the year’s most extravagantly entertaining new musicals.”

The Cast Recording of Everyday Rapture features the full cast, which also includes Betsey Wolfe, Eamon Foley and Lindsay Mendez.

The track list is as follows:

1. The Other Side of This Life (Overture)

2. Got a Thing on My Mind

3. Elevation

4. On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe

5. Get Happy

6. You Made Me Love You

7. Mr. Rogers Medley (It’s Such a Good Feeling, Everybody's Fancy, I Like to Be Told)

8. It’s You I Like

9. I Guess the Lord Must Be in New York City

10. Life Line
