STARFER

About This Event

A MUSICAL COMEDY ABOUT SERIOUS DRAMA
Working at a job you love is great. Doing that job for a boss who makes you feel invisible? Not so great. Such is the predicament for Beth – an ambitious literary manager at a non-profit theater company in New York City. She longs for the theater to produce plays by the talented, unknown writers whose script submissions she reads day and night. Her artistic director boss, Todd-Michael, longs for box office success. When the theater is forced to cancel an upcoming production, Beth leaps at the chance to both prove herself and promote the voice of a new playwright. That is, until Todd-Michael announces that he knows just the show to fill the empty slot: the first play by an internationally beloved pop superstar. This biting, brilliant satire by writer/composer Matt Schatz delighted audiences at Pittsburgh CLO’s SPARK festival in 2018. A hilarious cautionary tale about artistic integrity & celebrity, STARFER is a musical for anyone who’s struggled to fight for their ideas and ideals. Adult Content
