OFF BOOK – THE IMPROVISED MUSICAL

Jessica McKenna and Zach Reino create a completely improvised musical in an attempt to combat the notion that musicals should be “carefully crafted” or “thought out at all.”

The duo has also written songs and musical sketches for the hit animation show Rick and Morty, Party Over Here (a Fox sketch show produced by The Lonely Island), the Peacock series Pitch Perfect: Bumper In Berlin, Buzzfeed, FunnyOrDie and Nickelodeon. Zach and Jess are currently developing TV and Film projects with Amy Poehler’s Paper Kite Productions, David Wain (The State, Role Models, Wanderlust) and Elizabeth Banks’ Brownstone Productions.

Before Rent, there was Tick... Tick... Boom! This autobiographical musical by Jonathan Larson, the Pulitzer Prize- and Tony Award-winning composer of Rent, is the story of a composer and the sacrifices that he made to achieve his big break in theatre. His girlfriend wants to get married and move out of the city, his best friend is making big bucks on Madison Avenue and, yet, Jon is still waiting on tables and trying to write the great American musical. Set in 1990, this compelling story of personal discovery takes you on the playwright/composer's journey that led to a Broadway blockbuster.

The Journey

Meridian Arts Centre: Greenwin Theatre

In "for colored girls..." a community of women come together to share stories of joy, loss, pain, struggle, defiance, and vulnerability through text, dance, song, and sound. They form a sisterhood and through lived experiences and/or heightened empathic abilities, they are able to triumphantly hold space for themselves and each other. They are a team of storytellers with a mission; to create a space of comfort and healing where they have immediate access to their love, laughter, and pain. Individually, they have agency but together they hold the universe of this play. "For colored girls..." is  a choreopoem- where text and movement work in tandem to drive the storytelling. One does not exist without the other.
