Our Productions Theatre Co. is anything but ordinary. Neither is the first musical of their 2015 Inaugural Season, Ordinary Days. The regional premiere of the acclaimed new production, is written by Adam Gwon, a composer and lyricist named one of "50 to Watch" by The Dramatist magazine, and winner of the 2008 Fred Ebb award for excellence in musical theater songwriting. Gwon's musical Ordinary Days recently enjoyed a sold-out run at the Finborough Theatre in London, after making its world premiere at Pennsylvania Centre Stage and appearing in the 2008 NAMT Festival of New Musicals and the 2008 ASCAP/Disney Musical Theatre Workshop. Ordinary Days is presented by Our Productions through special arrangement with R & H Theatricals: www.rnh.com.

Ordinary Days tells the story of four young New Yorkers whose lives intersect as they search for fulfillment, happiness, love and cabs.

Ordinary Days is an original musical for anyone who's ever struggled to appreciate the simple things in a complex place. With equal doses of humor and poignancy, it celebrates how 8.3 million individual stories combine in unexpected ways to make any city a unique and extraordinary home.

The critics call Ordinary Days...
"A QUIETLY AFFECTING SHOW... Ordinary Days introduces a promising newcomer to our talent-hungry musical theater. Mr. Gwon writes crisp, fluid and funny lyrics that reflect the racing minds of four New Yorkers on a nervous search for their immediate futures. Ordinary Days...captures with stinging clarity that uneasy moment in youth when doubts begin to cloud hopes for a future of unlimited possibility." --Charles Isherwood, The New York Times

"FULL OF IDIOSYNCRATIC CHARM... A heartfelt and clever look at life in modern-day New York." (Critic's Pick) --Adam Feldman, Time Out New York
"ARRESTINGLY POETIC... A small-scale pleasure. Those who want to spot talented up-and-comers will want to check out Adam Gwon." (Critic's Choice) --Charles McNulty, LA Times
