Jesse Eisenberg, Bonnie Milligan and More to Join THE 24 HOUR MUSICALS
Cassadee Pope, Dee Roscioli & Morgan Siobhan Green will perform at The Lynn F. Angelson Theater.
On June 22, 2026, artists from across the entertainment industry will come together to create and perform four brand new musicals in a single day. The 24 Hour Musicals are musical theater's most ambitious highwire act, where actors, writers, composers, directors, choreographers and a live band create and perform four brand new short musicals for a live audience at The Lynn F. Angelson Theater.
Artists scheduled to join this one-time-only mad dash of creativity include Jesse Eisenberg (A Real Pain), Bonnie Milligan (Kimberly Akimbo), Cassadee Pope (The Voice, season 3 winner), David Iacono (The Summer I Turned Pretty), Ashlie Atkinson (The Gilded Age), Morgan Siobhan Green (Hadestown), Warren Leight (Side Man), Rodd Cyrus (Ragtime), Kate Wetherhead (The Devil Wears Prada), Dee Roscioli (Death Becomes Her), Olli Haaskivi (Oppenheimer), Michael Mitnick (Scotland, PA), Alex Gibson (Octet), Natalie Walker (White Girl In Danger), Eli Bolin (The Sack Lunch Bunch), Faye Chiao and Tasha Gordon-Solmon (Fountain of You), Fouad Dakwar (Fouad of Nazareth), Christopher Sears (Dog Day Afternoon), Colm Summers (Every Brilliant Thing, Geffen) and additional cast and creative team to be announced.
The marathon process for The 24 Hour Musicals begins at 7 PM on the night before the performance. Writers, composers, directors, choreographers, actors, musicians and production staff gather for a short orientation. After the cast departs for the evening, writers and composers begin crafting 15-20 minute musicals for the sleeping actors. The next morning - after a furious printing and copying process - actors receive their roles and directors, choreographers and musicians arrive to begin rehearsal. Later that very night, these four brand new musicals take the stage in a one-night-only production.
Tickets start at $100 and are available at 24hourplays.org/musicals. Proceeds support the The 24 Hour Plays nonprofit activities throughout the year, including education programs for students from middle school through college and a free professional development intensive for emerging artists, The 24 Hour Plays Nationals.
