Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program current Year Two student James Powers (Cycle 32) presented a reading of his new musical UNFINISHED as part of the Theatre [Untitled] Reading Series 2022.
The reading took place at the Harlem Studio in upper Manhattan and was also streamed at www.theatreuntitled.com
UNFINISHED is an absurdist musical comedy tackling the issues that many young adults find themselves in today. When life is suddenly halted and you are left wondering, “What do I do now?” In this world, we are introduced to Dude, a young person trying to become a writer. While he is trying to finish his song, many of the unfinished ideas, moments, and relationships from his life come to him and demand that he finish their part of the story first. In the process, we discover his own personal failings and feelings of inadequacy that have led him to this point in his life.
