LONDON, Jan. 12, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Sherman Theatrical Entertainment Ltd. announces the release of "The Robbie Sherman Songbook," marking the 100 year anniversary of Sherman family songwriting. The premier "must-have" audition tool for musical theatre performers and enthusiasts, the audio album features 16 tracks from Robert J. Sherman's theatrical musical catalogue, many of which have been recorded by some of the West End's most notable stars, including Olivier Award winner Sam Tutty (Dear Evan Hansen) and Olivier nominated Rachel John (Hamilton).
This collection of songs was selected from five musicals written by Robert J. Sherman, including Bumblescratch, Love Birds, and A Spoonful of Sherman, as well as upcoming musical projects The Magic Flute and The Penguin Pirate. A perfect addition to any performer's musical theatre audition repertoire, The Robbie Sherman Songbook includes songs written specifically for younger characters who possess all the complexity and dimensionality that have come to define the youth of today.
