BIO

George Luton is an internationally-regarded musical theatre composer from New York City, where his work has been heard at the off-Broadway York Theatre (More Than This World), the BMI Lehman Engel Musical Theatre Workshop (The Picture of Dorian Gray, Roommate Horror Story), and the Tank NYC (Alice, PreScripted, Truth Dare or Lesbian, Of Sleepless Nights). Regionally, over a dozen of his compositions have been mounted in the Massachusetts theatre circuit by companies such as Stage 284 (Earhart, Stiltskin, Nottingham), Boston Children’s Theatre (Apple and the Bear, Apple Plus), Island Theatre Workshop (Boots, Treasure Island), and In Vivo Productions (The Conditions of Readiness, Face Work). His compositions have been acclaimed as "glorious, harmonic, rousing, singable, and memorable. The only question to be answered is which song you will be singing when you leave the theater." (BWW News Desk) George obtained a B.A. cum laude in Music and Drama from Vassar College, where he was employed by the school’s theatre department as a music specialist and was twice awarded the Jean-Slater Edson Prize in Composition. George also serves as a music director and improvisational pianist for the improvisational comedy show Broadway's Next Hit Musical.
