We’re pleased to announce our head arranger Jon Burr has written a musical!
The songs and lyrics from the show are up on its new website.
We’ve started a GoFundMe campaign to raise funds to replace the AI vocals on the tracks and complete the orchestrations.
From Jon:
“When I first heard about Conversion Therapy, I started working on a musical to create some blowback in an entertaining sort of way, through a story of a young man’s journey through abuse to self-acceptance.
The music runs the gamut from tender ballad through thrash rock to anthemic, with some old-style Broadway uptempo 2-beat and retro swing.
Short synopsis:
Sammy, a post-pubescent boy from Dixville, Tennessee, falls in love with musical theater after a trip to NYC. As he grapples with his emerging feelings for other boys, he faces rejection from his community and family. Sent to a conversion therapy camp, Sammy eventually escapes to New York, finding acceptance, a job, and pursuing his dream in theater.”
