Fugitive Songs

Theatre 134 in the ArtSpace @Crestwood Court Mall
St. Louis, MO

FUGITIVE SONGS is a musical journey across America. This innovative musical theatre piece spotlights people on the run: a disgruntled Subway sandwich employee, a jilted ex-cheerleader, a pair of Patty Hearst fanatics, a stoner forced to rob a convenience store against his will, and many others. Blending traditional folk music with contemporary pop and gospel, FUGITIVE SONGS offers a new sound for a restless America.

The world premiere song cycle is written by one of the countrys most exciting new musical theatre partnerships, Chris Miller and Nathan Tysen. They are the recipients of a 2007 Kitty Carlisle Hart Award, a 2006 Richard Rodgers Award, a 2004 Daryl Roth Creative Spirit Award, a 2003 Frederick Loewe Foundation Grant, and a 2003 Jonathan Larson Award. Their musical, "The Burnt Part Boys," will be seen at Playwrights Horizons in New York City this season. Recently, they were commissioned to write a Broadway musical based on the book "Tuck Everlasting".

Directed by Echo's Artistic Director Eric Little, FUGITIVE SONGS will feature the talents of Justin Ivan Brown, Khnemu Menu-Ra, Ben Nordstrom*, Lori Pagano and Katy Tibbets*.
