Program Alums Present Concert of New Work at 54 Below

Thursday, Mar 30, 2023

Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program alums Bryan Blaskie and Laurie Hochman (both cycle 27) will present a concert of their new musical GHOST GIRLS: AN UNDARK TRUE STORY on March 30th, 2023 at NYC's prestigious cabaret venue 54 Below.

The writing duo will make their 54 Below debut with this concert of their new musical historical adaptation they began writing at NYU’s Graduate Musical Theatre Program. Set between the tail-end of WWI and the late 1920s and featuring a haunting, ethereal score, GHOST GIRLS tells the story of the women who developed radiation sickness while working in an undark watch dial painting factory, exploring their fight through an undark, unforgiving unravelling of events long-forgotten. Inspired by the story of the real Radium Girls, GHOST GIRLS is a story of love and hurt, of power and pain, and of brother- and sisterhood. Blaskie is credited with writing the book and music and Hochman with the book and lyrics.
