Headshots and resumes are requested, but not required. Special Note: The

accommodating, as possible.
ABOUT THE SHOW
Encore is
delighted to produce Songs for a New World by Tony award-winner, Jason Robert Brown, who has been hailed as"one of Broadway's smartest, most sophisticated songwriters since Stephen
Sondheim"(Philadelphia Inquirer)
With an emotionally charged
score of contemporary pop/rock theatre music, Songs for a New World takes us
from the deck of a 1492 Spanish sailing ship to a ledge 57 stories above Fifth
Avenue through 16 unique songs, each telling its own story: how to survive in a
new set of circumstances – a new world – even against seemingly overwhelming
odds.“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; these are the songs for a new world.
Songs for a New World
was originally produced by the WPA Theatre, NYC, 1995 (Kyle Renick, Artistic
Director). Original orchestration by Brian Besterman and Jason Robert Brown.
