Ordinary Days: A Musical By Adam Gwon
For our production of Ordinary Days we asked five New York City based professional theater artists to share their talents with our Central Vermont community for the week. We are so grateful to them for giving us their time and talent and we are equally grateful to Greenway Institute and our local host families for providing welcoming places to stay during their visit. One dream for the Hub is to develop a competitive grant program for new works as a workshop retreat each summer in beautiful Vermont. This production will be a core example of hosting incredibly talented professional artists here in our capital city.
From one of musical theatre's most exciting new composers comes Ordinary Days, a refreshingly honest and funny musical about making real connections in the city that never sleeps (but probably should at some point).
Ordinary Days tells the story of four young New Yorkers whose lives intersect as they search for fulfillment, happiness, love and cabs. Through a score of vibrant and memorable songs, their experiences ring startlingly true to life. Ordinary Days is an original musical for anyone who's ever struggled to appreciate the simple things in a complex place. With equal doses of humor and poignancy, it celebrates how 8.3 million individual stories combine in unexpected ways to make New York City such a unique and extraordinary home.
Ordinary Days is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals.
