Web Series Worth Watching: Gregory Harrison is Outside The Box

Web Series of the Week: Outside The Box
Created, written and directed by Bruce Kimmel (who wrote and directed one of my guilty film pleasures, 1976's The First Nudie Musical), this new musical comedy series began on YouTube in November, but I just discovered it today and became an instant fan. The simple premise of this hilarious show is that in each episode a different actor receives a phone call from Stephen Findle of the Outside The Box Musical Theatre Group who asks them to star in a new - and very original - musical. Below are the two most recent episodes featuring Gregory Harrison (who may no longer look like the above pic from his memorable 1981 TV movie, For Ladies Only, but is still a handsome guy at age 61) and Alet and Andy Taylor.

To watch the first three episodes of Outside The Box - with Broadway actors Beth Leavel (The Drowsy Chaperone), Jason Graae (Falsettos) and Brad Oscar (The Producers) - go to its YouTube channel. You can also become a fan of the series on Facebook.
