MUSI-CAL Comes To The Bourbon Room, Monday, June 5

The Foundation for New American Musicals (FNAM) has announced the presentation of MUSI-CAL at the Bourbon Room in Hollywood on Monday, June 5th.

Clayton Farris (actor, writer, and social media influencer) and Laura Schein (actor/writer/songwriter/co-creator of the acclaimed new musical Emojiland) will host this MUSI-CAL concert. The program will feature selections from four new musicals such as REAL HOUSEWIVES: The Unauthorized Musical Parody, The Art Forger, This Used to be a Disco and Miss Hysteria.

MUSI-CAL is one of FNAM's programs that fosters the development and support of new musicals by allowing audiences to see and react to works-in-progress by local So-Cal Composers and Writers. The program offers our So-Cal music creators' encouragement and a public showcase of their work. Here, people in the industry greet friends and meet new talents. MUSI-CAL has featured more than 100 musicals in progress in a few short years.
