Upbeat meta musical about the realities of creating a Broadway production
The trials and tribulations of a group of young performers in New York form the basis of the UK premiere of Patch of Blue’s [Title of Show]. Written in just three weeks for the New York Musical Theatre Festival, this 'musical about two guys writing a musical about two guys writing a musical' follows the creation of a new piece of musical theatre, from conception to realisation to performance with plentiful songs in between.
The brainchild of Jeff Bowen and Hunter Bell, [Title of Show] is a refreshing and original piece of theatre that gives the audience an insight into what makes a musical. However, what makes this show more unusual is the emphasis, not just on the writing process, but the study of other, associated pressures, such as the influence of investors and producers. In the hands of Bowen and Bell, it soon becomes apparent that writing and performing a musical is only part of the battle.
Uplifting, invigorating and oddly familiar, [Title of Show] is a unique and unforgettable musical; see it at the Fringe before it tours.
