Shows Allie Music Directed through NYU’s Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program:
Next Year In Connecticut
Book and Lyrics by Sarah Rossman
Music by Sequoia Sellinger
“Welcome to seder with the Stablemans, featuring forbidden romance, Brisketgate, a dog shiva, an Exodus tap dance number, and hey, this might be the year that Elijah (the prophet) shows up! A musical love letter to dysfunctional families, Next Year in Connecticut! explores how mental illness hijacks family systems, transforming relationships and redefining normalcy. With the Stablemans, boundaries are negligible, and laughter and disaster go hand in hand.”
Allie music directed both the 45 minute reading (Fall 2023) and 90 minute reading (Spring 2024) at Tisch.
