Musical Works: A Festival Celebrating New Musical Theatre
MUSICAL WORKS: A FESTIVAL CELEBRATING NEW MUSICAL THEATRE returns to Toronto for the 6th time, now as a collaboration between Theatre 20 and Musical Works In Concert under the Artistic Direction of Tracy Michailidis. Founded in 2010 as a part of the SummerWorks Festival, Musical Works In Concert was formed as an initiative to provide a forum for Canadian writers and composers to help develop and present original works of musical theatre. The series offers artists a space to have their work presented in a stripped-down concert format in front of an audience.
In 2015, MUSICAL WORKS: A FESTIVAL CELEBRATING NEW MUSICAL THEATRE will facilitate the dramaturgy and workshopping of four new musical works in development:
FITZ HAPPENS! with book, music and lyrics by Mark Weatherley
MISPRINT (ACT I) with book by Lauren Toffan, music and lyrics by Yan Li
OUT OF THE LENS with book and lyrics by David Kingsmill, music by David Kingsmill and Nicholas Chave
THE YELLOW RIBBON (ACT I) with book and lyrics by Sara Farb, music by Jesse Farb.
