Songs from popular and endearing Broadway shows including "West Side Story," "South Pacific", "Camelot", and "The Phantom of the Opera" (among others) as well as other popular ballads are woven together in the plot that provides the romantic ingredient in the story.
The world premiere of TINA AND THE MAGIC MIRROR features the talented rising Broadway performer Lara Avengoza (in photo), who played the role ¡ "Diwata" in Karim at Jasmin, and who has performed in concert with singer Chris Lawrence and with the award winning vocal group "Three of a Kind".
