Songs For A New World
Music and Lyrics by
Jason Robert Brown
Two Acts, Revue, Pop / Rock, Rated G
Original Off-Broadway Version
Jason Robert Brown
says, "it's about one moment. It's about hitting the wall and having
to make a choice, or take a stand, or turn around and go back." These
are the stories and characters of today, the SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD.
Brown
transports his audience from the deck of a 1492 Spanish sailing ship to
a ledge 57 stories above Fifth Avenue to meet a startling array of
characters ranging from a young man who has determined that basket-ball
is his ticket out of the ghetto to a woman whose dream of marrying rich
nabs her the man of her dreams and a soulless marriage.
With a small, powerhouse multi-ethnic cast and a driving, exquisitely crafted score running the gamut of today’s popular music, SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD is a great way to bring the next generation into the theatre.

The breathtaking Broadway production required no less than two directors, Harold Prince and Michael Bennett. Follies represents the only time either shared directorial credit.
