A joint production by Playwrights Horizons and NYTW coming Spril 2011.

This is TERRIFIC news. I saw this and was loosely involved with the production 7ish years ago at NYMF. It is TERRIFIC.

Very exciting. I went to school with John Langs...good for him!

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

yeah, I saw/loved this at NYMF, too ... so how can this be "the musical's New York premiere"? is the NYMF gig considered a workshop or something? that wouldn't seem right ...

I guess it was considered a showcase, but I agree, the "New York premiere" thing still isn't accurate.

I saw this at Lookinglass in Chicago and loved it. It inspired me to do a bit more research into the group. Truly bizarre story.

This is great....the story is a bit of a mix of "Grey Gardens" and "Souvenir".

I just finished a show with Kevin Cahoon who did several workshops of the show. He and I had many conversations about this show and he spoke VERY highly of it. I can't wait to see more about this production!
