Talia Suskauer, Chris McCarrell & More to Star in NEVER BE KING at 54 Below

54 BELOW, Broadway's Supper Club, will present the NYC debut of Never Be King, a brand-f*kn-new musical by Charlie H. Ray and Sam Columbus. Hear hits from the E.P. like “Some Days,” “Rock Song,” “I'm Coming In,” (and more!) and witness the debut of brand new scenes and songs. With a score that blends Y2K pop-punk and 16th Century choral music (trust us… it works), Never Be King tells the story of Henry of Navarre from two perspectives: the voice that history edified and the voice that history forgot. After all: history's just a he said, she said. Produced by Clayton Howe.
