HOME WORK Reading Plays New World Stages, 5/20

HOME WORK, the new anti-bullying musical, comes from the creator and writer of MANCHESTER HIGH: IF THESE LOCKERS COULD TALK, a film about bullying and teen empowerment, with Nicholas B. Holstein (book writer and lyrics), Jeremy Blachman (lyrics), Sophia E. DiGonis and Evan Webb (music).

HOME WORK is currently scheduled for a one-night concert and staged reading at New World Stages on May 20, 2014.

HOME WORK aims for another reading at Disney Theatrical's New Amsterdam Theatre in 2014. HOME WORK, formerly known as THE GODS OF FRIDAY NIGHT: A Texas Gridiron Musical, is the first musical to come to stage about the popularity of Texas high school football.

The cast will feature Haden Rider (as All-American quarterback Clint Walker), Mark Jammal (as country boy and partier Scooter Bailey), Tanner Bollinger (as powerhouse linebacker Rusty Wilkes), Marina Espinoza (as free-spirited Zoey), Dan Hoy (as Student Council President Dawson McCartney), and Carly Berg (as diva Ashley Sterling). Nicholas Holstein directs.
