History

Inspiration


Edges is inspired by young adults asking coming-of-age questions. Authors, Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, wrote the songs during their time as undergraduates at the University of Michigan.

Productions


After over 30 productions at colleges across the United States, the first professional production of Edges was at the Capital Repertory Theatre in Albany, New York, in 2007.

Edges then premiered in Toronto in 2008, Australia in 2010 at the Parade Theatre in Kensington, the Philippines in 2010 and the Landor Theatre in London, where it was the Notion Theatre Company's inaugural production in 2011.
