From one of musical theatre's most exciting new composers comes Ordinary Days, a refreshingly honest and funny musical about making real connections in the city that never sleeps (but probably should at some point).
Ordinary Days tells the story of four young people whose lives intersect as they search for fulfillment, happiness, love and cabs. Through a score of vibrant and memorable songs, their experiences ring startlingly true to life. Ordinary Days is an original musical for anyone who's ever struggled to appreciate the simple things in a complex place. With equal doses of humor and poignancy, it celebrates how 8.3 million individual stories combine in unexpected ways to make New York City such a unique and extraordinary home.
Heartfelt, witty and beautifully layered, Ordinary Days is a contemporary musical that follows four people - Deb, Warren, Jason and Claire - whose lives quietly intersect in small, unexpected ways. As they navigate love, loss, purpose and connection, their stories unfold through a vibrant, contemporary score that captures the rhythm of everyday life.
Intimate and deeply moving, this must-see musical is also full of humour and heart - a reminder that even in life’s rush, the smallest moments can be beautiful.
Directed by: Mandy McGarrigle
Musical Direction by: Margie Gemmell
