This past weekend, Village Theatre's 16th Annual Festival of New Musicals was held in Issaquah, WA, with actors, creative teams, and writers gathered from around the country for readings of five new musicals - Costs of Living (by Timothy Huang), How to Break (book and lyrics by Aaron Jafferis, songs by Rebecca Hart, beatbox score by Yako 44), We Foxes (by Ryan Scott Oliver), String (book by Sarah Hammond, music and lyrics by Adam Gwon), and Writing Kevin Taylor (music and lyrics by Will Van Dyke, book and lyrics by Josh Halloway).

Photographer Andrew Garrett captured behind-the-scenes photos during rehearsals, as well as during the post-reading talkbacks, which provided creative teams with valuable feedback from audiences for the further development of the new works.

Two of the musicals in this year's Festival of New Musicals, Stringand Writing Kevin Taylor, along with one musical from last year's Festival, will go on to kick off Village Theatre's inaugural Beta Series later this year.
