Wהn life presents a newset of circumstances, we arefaced with choices. In this inti-mate new musical, each songtells it’s own story – taking usfrom the deck of a 15th centurysailling ship to the ledge of aPark Avenue skyscraper. Andeverywhere in between. Family,relationships, life and love areexplored – when we are facedwith a new world where the solutions of previous generationsno longer work, and rules maynot apply as often as they do.

“Jason Robert Brown is a leadingmember of a new generation ofcomposers who embody highhopes for the American musical.”

— New York Times
