This contemporary musical by Tony Award winner, Jason Robert Brown, is a moving collection of powerful songs that examines life and weaves its characters and history together, illuminating the timelessness of self-discovery.
The presentation lies between musical and song cycle, but is neither. Rather, it is an abstract series of songs that are all connected by a theme: “the moment of decision.” There are four performers who do not literally play the same characters throughout the show but who do have consistently developing arcs none-the-less.
Composer Brown said “It’s about one moment. It’s about hitting the wall and having to make a choice, or take a stand, or turn around and go back.” Choices . . . there are always choices. What we choose individually to base those choices on is strictly up to us.
These are the stories and characters of today. . . these are the SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD.
