Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program alums Shoshana Greenberg (Cycle 16) and Hyeyoung Kim (Cycle 13) presented an industry reading of their new musical DAYS OF RAGE at NYC's York Theater on December 4th, 2023.
With music and a book by Kim and lyrics by Greenberg, DAYS OF RAGE explores the question, "How can we stop the cycle of violence?" through the experiences of various activist groups during the late 1960s and early ‘70s in Chicago. Jean Avery leads a militant protest group that tries to stop the war and bring troops back home, and David Hayward, the leader of the Black Angels, tries to build a community and protect their homes from Urban Renewal.
