Writer Alexander Sage Oyen said today: “Moment by Moment began as a concert at 54 Below in 2013, starring and made possible by close friends and collaborators who helped me fall in love with creating musicals. It is so incredibly special for me to be here over a decade later with a new group of collaborators (who have become such friends) creating something new, fresh, and unexpected with these songs. Revisiting these songs, arrangements, and orchestrations has been such a fruitful experience, and I am so incredibly grateful to Louis Rayneau and everyone at Future Spotlight Productions who have made this film possible.”

Casting and release details will be announced shortly.
