It is the product of several minds many musical theater fans and out-of-work performers who collaborated on original songs, lyrics and ideas to turn an animated, non-musical film into a two-act Broadway-style show.
The story for both film and musical centers on Remy, an ambitious rat who dreams of becoming a Parisian chef. Burgess will play Remy, Lambert plays his older brother, Emile, and Brady plays his father. Tony Award-winner De Shields plays food critic Anton Ego, Kevin Chamberlin plays the great chef Gusteau and Andrew Barth Feldman plays Gusteau s nephew Linguini.
