 Tony Award winners Steven Sater and Duncan Sheik will be teaming up again on the new musical NERO. Just like with their hit Spring Awakening, Sater will be writing the book and lyrics and Sheik will be writing the music.

Idina Menzel, Spring Awakening star Lea Michele, and Jeffrey Carlson will be performing in a special concert reading of the new musical at the Vogelstein Center for Drama and Film at Vassar College from July 11th-13th 2008. Daniel Kramer will direct. The show will be included as part of the Powerhouse Summer Series at the college.  

According to press notes the musical is described as the tale of "a black-comic tale of the bad-boy Emperor who fiddles as all faith in his country burns."
