The hit musical comedy BINGO: A WINNING NEW MUSICAL explores the joys, heartaches and lessons in winning and losing as witnessed by three die-hard bingo friends. Conceived by the Grammy-nominated songwriters of “Swing!”, Michael Heitzman and Ilene Reid, and the Musical Director of “Mamma Mia”, David Holcenberg, BINGO makes its regional premiere July 18 at ART Station. Preview performances are July 16 and 17. BINGO is directed by David Thomas.

BINGO is a high-energy, funny new musical focusing on three bingo-obsessed friends: Vern, the funny, tough matriarch of the group with a heart of gold; Honey, an extremely loveable sex kitten who is not the "brightest of bulbs;" and Patsy, the rockstar wannabe with an obsessively superstitious exterior. The three pals risk traveling through a terrible storm for their weekly game where they encounter the young stranger, Alison, the handsome bingo caller, Sam and the friendly bingo hall manager, Minnie.

The score features songs including "Girl's Night Out," "Anyone Can Play Bingo," "Gentleman Caller" and "B4." BINGO premiered at the Hermosa Beach Playhouse in California and went on to enjoy successful runs off-Broadway in New York City, in Minneapolis, Ft. Lauderdale, Sarasota & Tallahasee, Florida, Chicago and Los Angeles.

Variety salutes BINGO as "bouncy" and "well crafted." The Los Angeles Times hails BINGO is "a fun, cheerful and witty new show, with songs [that] bring down the house," while The New York Times raves "BINGO turns Grandma's favorite form of gambling into fun-loving musical theater!" The Associated Press wrote that BINGO is "extremely funny and whimsical. BINGO creates a hilarious portrait of a peculiar event, much in the way The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee did for elementary school spellers."
