We Start in Manhattan - A New Queer Musical at Live & In Color

September 9th @ 3:00pm & September 10th @ 2:00pm

Filled with humor and heart, this musical tells the story of a one-night stand turned month-long road trip, exploring the nuances and delights of intimacy with an expiration date. So grab your Tinder date and keys to the U-Haul, and join us for an exciting celebration of queerness, community, and new musical theatre!*

The musical’s creators, Ariella Serur and Sav Souza are a real-life couple and writing duo based in Bushwick, NYC. Fresh off their simultaneous Broadway debuts in the revival of 1776, the two are currently on tour with the show around the US. Serur and Souza are dedicated to creating stories that celebrate queer love and intimacy in a nuanced and joyful way, free of queer trauma. We Start In Manhattan debuted to a sold-out crowd at GreenRoom 42 in February of 2022. Earlier this year, the couple sold out 54 Below with their musical featuring fellow cast members of 1776 on Broadway, and in July they had their reading debut at Powerhouse at Vassar.
