Broadside the Musical - 2026
Before there were feeds, there were broadsides. Set in Boston from 1769 to 1775, Broadside the Musical explores the years leading to the American Revolution through the printers, Patriots, Loyalists, women, soldiers and ordinary citizens who fought not only over independence, but over who would control the story. Extensive historical research informs a musical filled with original songs, period influences, dance and choreography, following characters including Paul and Sarah Revere, Dr. Joseph Warren, Phillis Wheatley, Abigail Adams, Mercy Otis Warren, Thomas Hutchinson and Thomas and Margaret Gage. From Faneuil Hall and the Boston Massacre to the Tea Party and April 19, 1775, Broadside explores how words, music and public opinion helped turn resistance into revolution. Music, Lyrics & Libretto by April Alsup.
Absurd Hero the Musical - 2025
Inspired by Albert Camus’ The Myth of Sisyphus, Absurd Hero throws Greek mythology, philosophy, politics, music and absurd comedy into one wonderfully strange contemporary world. Sid wants to make his community better, but first he'll have to contend with Zeus, Ari, Darby, Tony and a collection of modern-day gods who have very different ideas about power, love and purpose. Through original songs, dance and musical theatre choreography, Absurd Hero asks a deceptively simple question: How do we live meaningfully when life doesn't always make sense? The answer may be to keep loving, laughing, creating and pushing the rock uphill anyway. Music, Lyrics & Libretto by April Alsup.
BANNED the Musical - 2024
What happens when the person you are online collides with the person you are in real life? BANNED the Musical follows a group of unlikely friends who decide to create a musical together while navigating usernames, profiles, relationships and the alternate identities they've created on the internet. When their show is accepted into a festival—and then banned after a social media video is deemed inappropriate, their online and offline worlds begin crashing together. Funny, irreverent and surprisingly heartfelt, BANNED uses original songs, music and choreography to explore identity, acceptance, friendship and the increasingly blurry boundary between our digital and real lives. Music, Lyrics & Libretto by April Alsup.
Eigg the Musical - 2023 Inspired by the remarkable history of Scotland’s Isle of Eigg, Eigg the Musical tells the story of generations of islanders and the long journey toward one extraordinary achievement: a community taking ownership of the place it calls home. With original music, Scottish influences, ceilidh-inspired dance and choreography, romance, history and plenty of humor, Eigg is ultimately a celebration of belonging, resilience and what can happen when ordinary people decide to take responsibility for their own future. Music & Lyrics by April Alsup; Book by Mark Sbani.
