“The G-d of In-Between,” a new musical written by Christopher Wall and featuring an all-new score by Howard Fishman will be featured at this summer’s Dartmouth Vox Theater Festival, in a new workshop presentation directed by Marina McClure and featuring Emma Orme, Meg MacCary, and Brandon Adams.
"we are destroyed" gets a new look at New York Theater Workshop
"we are destroyed," Howard's music theater piece inspired by the Donner Party tragedy of 1846, has been selected for a new showing at NEW YORK THEATER WORKSHOP's "Monday@3" series in April.
Though the new workshop showing is not open to the public, it represents a new step forward for the project, which has been seen in previous iterations (and in various stages of development) as a concert, an oratorio, and a play with music.
