It’s Kind of a Funny Story catapulted onto the scene at a 54 Below concert in 2017 that captured the attention and hearts of fans viewing clips from the concert online. In summer 2025, a sold-out reading was presented at Powerhouse Theater, directed by Sarna Lapine, music directed by Alex “Goldie” Golden with casting by Jenny Ravitz. It’s Kind of a Funny Story is based on the Focus Features film written and directed by Anna Bodin and Ryan Fleck and the book by Ned Vizzini, and is produced by special arrangement with Universal Theatrical Group.
