For our show part of our writing team is an amazing lyricists, Michael Biello and a genius composer , Dan Martin. Biello/Martin have been working on another Broadway bound show for the last 3 or 4 years and this show is in the official workshop phase. Ahhhhhh, some of you might be wondering to yourselves, what is an official workshop. Well, we learned the hard way that the theatre world does not use certain terms and expressions lightly. Each phase of a musical theatre piece has very specific definitions and if you are new to the theatre world like we are, using these terms incorrectly is a big No No. So to keep us all on the same page, tomorrow we will be attending an official workshop production and from what I can understand here is the definition of this to the theatre world.
Workshop Production: a work in progress. The writers,lyricists, composers and director, and sometimes the actors as well, continue to work on a play or musical as they present it to a paying or nonpaying invite only preview audience.
Needless to say we are very excited to be part of this. The new show is called Mary Harry and we are thrilled for Biello/Martin!
