Broadway-Bound SOUL DOCTOR, The Journey of Rock-Star Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach, Opens December 24 in South Florida(December 1, 2011) - Miami, FL - SOUL DOCTOR, the exhilarating, riveting and hilarious new Broadway-bound musical, tells the true story of the beloved and controversial father of popular Jewish music, Shlomo Carlebach. Deemed a CERTIFIABLE HIT by Larry King and examiner.com, the pre-Broadway premier debuts in South Florida on December 24, with shows first in Miami Beach, then Fort Lauderdale. Steve Margoshes, the legendary composer/orchestrator of such Broadway hits as Elton Johns Aida, The WHOs Tommy and Smokey Joes Café, has woven together 30 of Carlebachs timeless hit songs into a show that CNNs Larry King described as A transformative theatrical experience, with soul-stirring melodies and a story that keeps the crowd roaring with laughter and song all night long! SOUL DOCTOR takes us on a musical odyssey through the challenges and triumphs of this cultural phenomenon: his childhood escape from Nazi Germany, becoming a rabbinical prodigy in America; discovering Gospel and Soul music during his unlikely friendship with Nina Simone; his meteoric rise as a Rock Star-Rabbi in the 1960s, performing with Bob Dylan, Jefferson Airplane and The Grateful Dead; his struggle to reconcile his deep traditional roots with his desire to reach people of all backgrounds in the free-love generation; and his personal conflicts trying to keep his family together while traversing the globe as a Soul Doctor, bringing joy and song to the lonely, the searching and the brokenhearted. Shlomo himself was like a great theatrical experience, said Daniel S. Wise, SOUL DOCTORs playwright/producer. Even if you were in a large crowd, Shlomos magnetism and charisma would reach you in the most personal and intimate way, igniting your imagination to discover a new level of joy.Six-time Tony Award winning Broadway Producer Richard Frankel says, "We produced Hairspray, which became an international mega hit because it had a Life-is-a-joyful-adventure quality to it. And I feel the same quality in SOUL DOCTOR, which thrills me and makes me really happy to be associated with it.Steve Margoshes has incorporated Carlebachs original hits into a spectacular theatrical score. His incredibly rich, gorgeous melodies are among the most theatrical of all the music Ive worked on, he says. Broadway audiences are going to be taken in and carried away by this incredible and deeply moving story that is joyous and filled with laughter - like the great musical comedies. SOUL DOCTOR has produced rave reviews www.shlomomusical.com/press.php See it before it goes to Broadway, wrote Playbill. Powerful and touching!
