From Dream to Debut: Jeffrey Scharf’s REUNIONS Makes Its Off-Broadway Premiere
Big shout-out to Jeffrey Scharf.
Composer. Lyricist. Book writer. All the things.
He’s been produced all over. He’s written songs for movies. He was a Kleban finalist. He’s done a lot in this business.
But you know what he hasn’t done?
Had a show Off-Broadway.
Until now.
In just a few weeks, his show Reunions will be opening Off-Broadway at City Center Stage.
And wait until you hear this cast: Chip Zein. Joanna Glushak. Chilina Kennedy, Courtney Reed. Directed by Gabriel Barre. And more.
That’s an all-star team.
How It Happened
And here’s my favorite part of this story . . .
This is happening because of Jeffrey.
A year or so ago, Jeffrey said something that I think every writer should say at some point:
“It’s time for me to have a show in New York.”
And then he asked for some help.
We helped him put a team together. We helped him shop for theaters. We helped him make a plan.
But make no mistake – he made this happen.
Because of his passion, because of his drive, because he refused to wait for someone else to give him permission . . . It’s happening.
Why You Should See Reunions
Go see Reunions this fall at City Center Stage Off-Broadway.
You’ll be charmed, entertained, and inspired – not just by the music, but by the story behind the story.
