The New York Musical Theatre Festival presents a new musical comedy, Unlock'd, based on the 18th century mock epic poem "The Rape of The Lock by Alexander Pope." Unlock'd is the winner of the 2004 Richard Rodgers Award with a book and lyrics by Sam Carner, music by Derek Gregor, and is directed by Igor Goldin; plus has music direction by David Andrews Rogers and orchestrations by Tony Award winner Bruce Coughlin.
