Stephen Flaherty & Christopher Gattelli's IN YOUR ARMS Coming to Old Globe Theatre?

Composer Stephen Flaherty just revealed in a recent interview with Aussietheatre.com, that his recent dance musical IN YOUR ARMS, which premiered last year as at part of the summer season at Vassar's Powerhouse Theatre, will soon get a regional run.

He told AT: "I also have a new dance musical that I am developing with the director-choreographer Christopher Gattelli (Newsies) and 10 celebrated American playwrights called In Your Arms. It centers around the idea of romantic destiny and I am the sole composer for the piece. It premieres this September at the Old Globe Theater in San Diego. I can't wait for that!"

An official announcement has not yet been made.

The show featured vignettes written by Douglas Carter Beane, Nilo Cruz, Christopher Durang, Carrie Fisher, David Henry Hwang, Rajiv Joseph, Terrence McNally, Marsha Norman, Lynn Nottage, & Alfred Uhry.
