"PURE IMAGINATION" RELEASED ON CD BY RICHARD COSTA

Richard Costa's "Pure Imagination" cabaret show, which played for two extended runs at DANNY'S SKYLIGHT ROOM (346 West 46th Street, NYC - 1-212-265-8133 - http://www.dannysgrandseapalace.com/ ) was a brilliant one man cabaret show and the perfect platform for Richard to showcase several if not all of the talents he has mastered to the utmost depth. Costa decided, with much encouragement, from producer & partner Gary Sitomer, to record "Pure Imagination" on CD with track after track of soaring, emotional vocals and soul felt words.

Born and raised in South Jersey, Richard always knew he would take his creativity and do something in the arts. His dream, like many others was to turn his life-long love for acting and music into a successful career; and he has done exactly that. After receiving his Bachelor of Music Theater Degree from the Shenandoah College and Conservatory of Music, in Winchester, VA, Rick headed to NY. Arriving in 1987 he worked extensively in regional theater appearing in such venues as Goodspeed Opera House, Theater of The Stars, and appeared in a very successful run in the Broadway production of "Cabaret," directed by Sam Mendes and Rob Marshall.

In the show, and on the CD, Richard takes the audience on a journey through the neurotically funny to the heart-aching and emotional. With his animated and captivating stage presence and with songs/dialogue adapted and performed by Mr. Costa, with direction by Amy Weinstein and musical direction and arrangements by Steven Ray Watkins, the CD offers a true glimpse into the life of someone all can all relate to.
