Anastasia, Blue canoe 2024
“From Tony winners Terrence McNally, Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, creators of such Broadway classics as Ragtime and Once On This Island, this dazzling show transports its audience from the twilight of the Russian Empire to the euphoria of Paris in the 1920s, as a brave young woman sets out to discover the mystery of her past. Pursued by a ruthless Soviet officer determined to silence her, Anya enlists the aid of a dashing con man and a lovable ex-aristocrat. Together, they embark on an epic adventure to help her find home, love and family.” - Concord Theatricals

making a living & surviving life in a tired, sick, and mad world
At their waterfront estate in Oyster Bay, the Lord family prepares for a lavish wedding weekend. The reluctant bride-to-be, famed socialite Tracy Lord, bristles when her playful ex-husband Dexter arrives to stir up trouble. Juggling a precocious younger sister, an uninspiring fiancé, a pesky ex-husband, a harried mother, a carousing uncle, and a pair of snooping reporters, Tracy struggles to make sense of her romantic life. The score is packed with Cole Porter standards, including “Ridin’ High,” “She’s Got That Thing,” “True Love,” “Just One Of Those Things,” “Let’s Misbehave,” “It’s All Right With Me,” and “Well, Did You Evah?” (Concord Theatrical)

A PERFECT BOWL OF PHO, KICK AND PUSH X GRAND THEATRE 2023
Nam, a procrastination-prone Vietnamese Canadian university student, sets out with the vague ambition to write a musical about his diaspora as embodied by food, particularly the world-famous noodle soup pho. What follows is pure meta musical, genre-bending through thousands of years of history, featuring rapping ancient kings, communist spies, dancing sharks and refugees, and awkward first dates in suburbia. However, Nam eventually finds himself caught between his different characters as each argues what pho (the food and the show) truly represents, and he struggles to find an answer that will satisfy everyone—in the end, isn’t this just a bunch of silly soup songs?
