ARTISTIC DIRECTOR’S NOTES

JamesWilliamBuffettwasbornonChristmasDay,1946, inPascagoula,Mississippi.In1970,hemovedtoNashville topursueacareerasacountrysingerandsignedhisfirst recordcontract.Buffetthimselfhasdescribedhismusicas “GulfandWestern”,ablendofcountry&westernandfolk-rock, flavouredwiththethemesoftheGulfcoast.Hisuniquestyle ofmusichasresultedinover24recordsandacommunityoffansknownasParrotheads. What’saParrothead?ThistermisappliedtothemostdevoutfansofJimmyBuffett’smusic. BeforeIsaw EscapetoMargaritaville,Iwasn’tawareofmanyofJimmy’ssongs.However, afterwatchingthismusicalonBroadway,Idownloadedaslewofthem.Hissongsare,what Iliketocall“ear-candy.”

EscapetoMargaritaville isnotabiography ofJimmyBuffett’s rise to fame and the communityofParrotheadsthatexistworldwide.Instead,thewritersofthemusical decidedtowriteanoriginalstorythatwasinspiredbyBuffett’ssongs.Thereisalotto garnerfromhiscatalogofsongsthathehaswritten.Notjustbeachpartymusic,but songsthattouchthehumanheart.SongswhereJimmy toldrichstories–anditwasin thosestoriesthatthewritersfoundtheirinspirations.

Oneofthegreatestgiftsthatatheatreexperiencecanofferistoescapefromtheworld foracoupleofhours.Themessageinthismusicalistoembraceloveandjoy,andthatno matterwhatcardsyou’redealt,joyandlovewillalwayssavetheday!Ihopeyouenjoy Margaritaville asmuchasIdid,and,whoknows,perhapstheshowwillturnyouintoa Parrothead!?
