One Nation Project the Musical, a perfectly timed, satirically aligned and topical sign of the times story told through two musical works in progress. Fired! The Musical focuses on the impact the Great Financial Crisis of 2008 affected the lives of our citizens. Liberators: An American Musical is a tear-jerking depiction of action traversing over a 70-year time span in America. Liberator's storyline is told from the viewpoint of three unlikely associates, of which are from varied ethnic backgrounds whose lives are connected after the start of WWII's dramatic end of the Liberation of camps Buchenwald and Dachau to the present. Current political views, national disasters, gun control, immigration and financial crisis are the spark of views facing a nation that is currently polarizing us as a nation. And such views are also the inspiration behind the One Nation Project. Touching on areas of riveting subject matter while platforming actions of friendship and the strength of togetherness shows' one example of the types of catalysts that these powerful Rock musicals will address.
