The new musical Wild Rose makes its US premiere this fall at the New York Theater Workshop. John Tiffany directs, Steven Hoggett choreographs. Nicole Taylor adapts her screenplay for the stage.
Tiffany suggests that Wild Rose “feels like it’s about someone who wants to be American who is in love with the whole world of Nashville, and it’s a really kind of positive story for Americans.” That’s why he and the show’s producers decided to approach NYTW artistic director Patricia McGregor to see if she fancied programming it at the Off-Broadway institution where Tiffany launched the musical Once before it transferred to Broadway, where it was garlanded with glittering hardware.
