About The Event
Music City is a new musical by Billboard Chart topping country songwriter JT Harding, with a book by Peter Zinn. Through soaring, soul piercing ballads and hard hitting, heart thumping showstoppers, audiences are drawn into a first hand account of two young singer songwriters trying to catch a break in a rundown East Nashville neighborhood stricken with drug addiction and poverty. In Nashville, heartbreak is the only thing they hand out for free.
While celebrating country music, Music City pushes against preconceived notions about the genre. Under the direction of Artistic Director Eric Tucker, Bedlam will bring New York audiences a challenge to the conventional jukebox musicals that have dominated Broadway productions in recent years. In an intimate setting, Tucker will turn the form on its head to present a revelatory, gritty, and thrilling take on the world of beers, sawdust and sunshine.
About The Organizer
Committed to the immediacy of the relationship between the actor and the audience, Bedlam creates works of theatre that reinvigorate traditional forms in a flexible, raw space, collapsing aesthetic distance and bringing its viewers into direct contact with the dangers and delicacies of life. In this new, fresh, active environment storytelling becomes paramount and the result is a kinetic experience of shared empathy.
