Original Cast: ‘The Jello Is Always Red’

In 1998, Clark Gesner, composer/lyricist of the eternal stage hit, You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, devised a zany, quirky cabaret revue. The Jello Is Always Red finds Gesner and his three compatriots—Winston Clark, Celia Gentry and Neal Young—singing songs of love, life and other minor matters. It opened Off Broadway in June at the York Theatre.

A few song titles will let you know what you’re in for: In addition to the title track, “Everything I Buy Was Made in China” and “There Is Always More Toothpaste in the Tube.”
