first sandboxmusicals playspace!

March 03, 2025

we’re having our first playspace through sandboxmusicals this march.

we’re having two 90-minute workshops for a scene/song from two new musicals in early stages of development.

the projects are:

Beethoven: Live in Concert | Book, Music, & Lyrics by Jad Jacob
“A musical about the world's first rock star - Ludwig van Beethoven.”

playspace team:
em hausmann (director)
trevor bourland (music director)
nick brogan (performer)
laura cetti (performer)

Hourglass | Book & Lyrics by Caroline Game, Music by Matthew Nassida
“We peer through the mirror looking at four different women who tell their stories of the complexities that have evolved from their experiences with generational & societal beauty standards from the 50s through to the modern day we witness how years have shaped each woman’s perspective on female bodies all while they grieve the recent loss of their grandmother/mother.”

playspace team:
jenna sage (director)
matt graham (music director)
laura cetti (performer)
senna prasatthong (performer)

i’m so excited to facilitate these workshops of exciting new shows and to finally start this program.
