From Page to Stage: A Night of New Musicals at Feinstein's at the Nikko

Feinstein’s is thrilled to present an exciting evening of new musical theatre by local favorites, The Kilbanes and Jen Coogan. These Bay Area writers will present selections from musicals in progress and give you an inside look into the development of today's musical theatre. Whether you prefer intimate ballads or a full rock experience, this show encapsulates the full spectrum of storytelling. The Kilbanes are Kate Kilbane and Dan Moses, a married musical theater writing and performing team. Their rock musical Weightless (WP Theater, ACT, Public Theater’s Under the Radar) was nominated for Lucille Lortel (Best Musical), Drama Desk (Best Music), and Off-Broadway Alliance (Best New Musical) awards in 2023. Other works include The Code, My Antonia, and Eddie the Marvelous Who Will Save the World. Jen Coogan began writing musicals in her desire to create more roles for women. Her work includes The Last Open Mic (Wild Horse Stage Co.’s Musical Development Initiative) The Morning After (Left Coast Theatre Company), The New Teacher (Superbad Theatre Company), Pharma Girls and The Oregon Trail Pages, as well as creating The Women in Theatre Project- a song cycle based off of interviews with some of the most influential women in theatre.
