Broadway Bullet Interview: Georgia Stitt

 

BROADWAY BULLET: Georgia Stitt has recently gained notoriety as a musical director for "You're the One that I Want" on Grease, but she also has an extensive career musical directing in other places and as a gifted composer herself.  And she's gathered a lot of friends together to release her debut CD, as a songwriter, "This Ordinary Thursday, the songs of Georgia Stitt" and she's come on down to the studio to talk about all things Georgia.  How are you doing?

Georgia Stitt: Hey Michael, I'm good how are you?

BB: Good. First off, let's talk a little bit about the album here.

GEORGIA: Yes let's talk about the album!

BB: It's a different type of album from what's out there on the theater scene.  As a composer you've just assembled a lot of different singers and a lot of different songs you have written, and we haven't seen a lot of that out. 

 GEORGIA: You know what, the truth is I've been writing musicals for ten years.  I went through the NYU musical theater writing program, and it takes so long to get a musical from the idea in your head, to the first production, to the production that launches it out to the world.  And so after doing readings and workshops and all these developmental steps of my pieces, I thought, "I can't believe I've been in this town for ten years and people don't know what I do".  And I thought, "If I could just put something in the world that said this is my calling card, this is what my music sounds like, this is who I am" that was where the idea for the album came from.  And I realized that I had enough songs that actually weren't from shows that I could released something that showcased performers really well, but also put some material out there in the world that there were songs that you could act, and songs you could really dig out and sing and so that's what this is.
