Little House on the Ferry: The Musical, which officially reopened The Duplex's upstairs cabaret space October 30 following previews that began October 15, has announced an early closing.
The Ferry's Landing NYC production, originally scheduled through January 5, 2025, will now play its final performance in the Fire Island-themed space November 9.
“We’re extremely proud of Little House on the Ferry, especially the hard work of the cast and creative team, and its message of equality for the LGBTQ community that was performed in the shadow of Stonewall,” said co-creator Rob Gould in a statement. “I have been thrilled by our rave reviews and enthusiastic audiences. So while we’re sorry to see this chapter of the show end, we’re very encouraged for the future of our special musical.”
The show features a book by Gould and music and lyrics by Gould and Rob Arbelo, with direction by Victoria Rae Sook and choreography by Michael McCrary. The work follows a group of friends meeting up on Fire Island for a weekend, with the marriage equality vote in the New York Senate looming. The production marks the return of Duplex's upstairs cabaret space, which had been closed since 2022 due to fire damage.
The cast includes Charles Osborne (Worst Cooks in America) as Randall, Andrew Leggieri (Bandstand) as Timothy, Troy Valjean Rucker (Romeo and Bernadette) as Jake, Christopher Harrod (The Gilded Age) as Donnie, Gilberto Saenz as Antonio, and drag queen Xana DuMe. It also features Kailin Brown (Chicago), Manuela Agudelo (The Running Show), and Kelsey Mourant (Shake & Bake) with Andre Jordan (Diana The Musical), Deon Oliverio (Pose), Andreas Wyder (The Bad Years), and Tym Moss.
Quenton Ellis serves as music director, and Corey Kline is the music
producer. The show also features design by Shawn Lewis, costume design
by Tyler Mark Holland, lighting design by Zach Pizza, sound design by
Ryk Lewis, and props design by Mikaela Baca-Dorion. Emma Ramsay-Saxon
and Megan Ciszek serve as production stage managers, with Michele
Corregio and Sydney Scott as assistant stage managers.
Ferry's Landing NYC is produced by Gould and Fever Labs with and Ripple Effect Artists. Anthony Francavilla of FORM Theatricals serves as general manager. The producing team also includes Benjamin Feldman (Pippin, Company).
