I was commissioned to write a musical adaptation of the novel Tom Jones. Trying to schedule work time with my musical writing partner, Paul Mirkovich, has been tricky. Paul is the musical director of the TV show The Voice and his work schedule is insane. House elves have easier schedules (Ooo, Harry Potter reference geek alert). I’m hoping we’ll have the music done by the end of the summer.
In the meantime, I took the book for the musical and reworked it into a non-musical script. The first act probably needs a bit more fleshing out but it’s time to get this script on its feet. So I’m looking for a theatre where I can do a reading, workshop, and/or the world premiere. I’ve contacted a few theatres and they are reading the script as we speak.
Any theatres interested?
