On Sunday, December 15th, Town Stages presented Will Thomason's newest song cycle, "These Four Years, Part 3." The four part project follows an ensemble of six late 20s New Yorkers, one year at a time, from 2017-2020.

"Part 3" of the Thomason tuner boasted 13 new songs on the themes of love, friendship, anxiety, and growing up from the point of view of young, modern-day, city-dwellers.
Alex Beck (Gorgeous: A Barbara Harris Tribute) directed the song cycle which starred Willie Dee (Loving You Productions), Darius Anthony Harper (Cirque du Soleil Volta), John Charles McLaughlin (The Happiest Millionaire 50th Anniversary), Vanessa Pereda-Felix (Addy & Uno), Erika Peterson (Kinky Boots at Gateway), and Cassandra Sandberg (The Producers at Farmers Alley). The band was Will Thomason on keyboard, David Ball on percussion, and Nathan Burke on guitar.
Tim Fuchs was on hand to capture images of the cast and band moments before they stepped on stage. His video of the songs will soon be available on YouTube.
"These Four Years, Part 4" will be performed in December 2020, the culmination of Thomason's 52 song opus.
