Droning On – Common Man Musicals

 

In grad school, composer Jonathan Fadner and I teamed up to turn one of my old short stories into a folk musical/opera. A year later, the theatre company that he and his talented wife run, Comman Man Musicals, produced it along with several awesome short musicals. One of the most fun theatre experiences of my life.

Droning On
