SandboxMusicals' Playspace program is a micro-workshop series for musicals in early stages of writing and development. Each Playspace focuses on a scene and song from a new musical, bringing together writers, directors, music directors, and performers for a collaborative exploration of the material. The format gives writing teams the chance to hear their work aloud, ask targeted questions, and continue developing in a low-pressure, process-focused room.
SandboxMusicals' Playspace Cabaret, Vol. 1 plays The Green Room 42 on Tuesday, July 21, 2026 at 7:00 PM. Tickets are available starting at $19, with no food or beverage minimum. A livestream option is also available.
