Last update: Tuesday 06th of January 2009 Amanda GreenAmanda GreenFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaJump to: navigation, search Amanda Green (born 1965) is an American singer and songwriter. Born in New York City, Green was raised on the Upper West Side with brother Adam by parents Phyllis Newman and Adolph Green. From an early age she was exposed to major talents of Broadway musical theatre, including Leonard Bernstein, Jule Styne, and Cy Coleman, all of whom were regular guests in the household. At the age of nine, she starred as Maria in her summer camp's production of West Side Story, and decided to focus on performing. After graduating from Brown University, Green attended an actors' training program at Circle in the Square and then spent two seasons at Williamstown Theatre. She began writing songs and performing in Manhattan cabarets like Joe's Pub. In the mid-1990s, enamored with Lyle Lovett's writing, she moved to Nashville and dabbled in country music. Heading to Los Angeles, Green wrote lyrics for two musicals, Once Upon a Primetime and Up the Week Without a Paddle, which earned her a nomination from the Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle. Back in New York, Green's original revue, Put a Little Love in Your Mouth!, co-starring Mario Cantone and Billy Strich, enjoyed a sold-out run at off-Broadway's Second Stage Theater. A recording of a live performance has been released on compact disc. She also wrote the lyrics for and co-starred with Nancy Opel in For the Love of Tiffany: A Wifetime Original Musical, which enjoyed a sold-out run at The Wings Theater as part of the New York International Fringe Festival. Green enrolled in the BMI Lehman Engel Musical Theater Workshop, where she met Tom Kitt, who suggested the two collaborate on a musical stage adaptation of the cult film High Fidelity. In a move reminiscent of the days when Broadway musicals routinely tested the waters out-of-town first, the show had a one-month run at Boston's Colonial Theatre before heading to New York City. After eighteen previews, the production opened on December 7, 2006 at the Imperial Theatre where, hampered by poor reviews , it closed after only fourteen performances. At present, Green and Kitt are writing original songs for a movie musical version of Debbie Does Dallas. She is the recipient of a 2004 Jonathan Larson Award and grant for excellence in songwriting, and a contributing writer to Playboy Magazine. She and husband Jeffrey Kaplan, an orthopedic surgeon, live in Manhattan.
