Program alums present new work at Soho Playhouse

Wednesday, Mar 1, 2023

Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program alums Sam Rosenblatt & Elspeth Collard (both Cycle 29) will present their new show LIKE THE WIND in concert at the SoHo Playhouse on March 20th at 7 PM.

All proceeds for the concert will go towards the Trevor Project, an organization that provides support and resources for queer youth.  

LIKE THE WIND is a new electronica-pop musical that explores the lives of Bennie and Cai, two queer teenagers running away from a conversion therapy facility in the summer of 2018. Loosely inspired by Bonnie and Clyde, Bennie and Cai choose to change the fate that society has set for them and break through the constraints of expectations and rules. With a queer writing team at the helm, Like the Wind explores themes of identity, forgiveness, and queerness in young people.
