Five New Yorkers are caught in a twisted love affair… with the city. This unique musical anthology takes us through their poignant and hilarious journeys to seize their own potential and the possibilities the city dangles before them. Driven by its kinetic and eclectic score featuring 3 MAC nominated songs, ISLAND SONG captures every urbanite’s triumphs, disappointments, and ever-tested perspective.
 
This premiere concert presentation of ISLAND SONG is directed by Marlo Hunter and features David Ayers (WICKED, FIDDLER ON THE ROOF), Lindsay Mendez (DOGFIGHT, GODSPELL), Preston Sadleir (NEXT TO NORMAL; ME, MYSELF & I), Sarah Stiles (INTO THE WOODS, AVENUE Q), and Raena White (DREAMGIRLS at Marriott Lincolnshire)

Current projects include additional songs for Sheila Levine Is Dead and Living in New York (book by Todd Graff and songs by Michael Devon, direction by Susan Stroman), which had a recent workshop with the Vineyard Theatre, and an adaptation of Rex Rose’s novella Toast, which is slated for a workshop production at the Bloomington Playwrights Project in early 2016.
 
Their short children’s musical Love, Splat has toured the country since 2013 in the TheatreWorks USA revue The Teacher From the Black Lagoon and Other Stories. They have written numerous songs for revues and web series, including My Gay Roommate, Redheads Anonymous, and more.
