REUNION! is a world-premiere new musical that will be “mashing” old songs with new – the score consists of many well-known/iconic pop songs from the 20th century to the present day. All performers should be excellent singer/actors – and many of the characters need to be excellent dancers (where indicated). This production rehearses in New York City, but the run (and two weeks of rehearsal) will be taking place in Wisconsin.
