A New Musical
Book by Kirsten Greenidge and Lauren Sandler
Based on Lauren Sandler's This is All I Got: A New Mother's Search for Home
Music and Lyrics by Crystal Monee Hall
Directed by Lorin Latarro
SYNOPSIS: A bold new musical from Pulitzer Prize finalist Kirsten Greenidge (LUCK OF THE IRISH), award-winning journalist Lauren Sandler (THIS IS ALL I GOT), and acclaimed composer Crystal Monee Hall (RENT, DEAR EVAN HANSEN Tour), directed by Tony Award nominee Lorin Latarro (INTO THE WOODS, WAITRESS), following a young mother's fight for housing, dignity, and hope in New York’s shelter system.
Jazmine - 22. Pretty, fiercely smart, unwilling to accept defeat without a fight, determined to create a home and family — the kind she did not have growing up — for her infant Son (She/Hers)
Yara - Jazmine’s neighbor in the shelter where they live. In her home country, Yara has a degree in sociology. Here, she finds herself without. Without close family, without her husband who is young, and handsome, but also mysteriously absent, and without resources. (She/Hers)
Giselle - Another neighbor from the shelter. The model resident. Well liked and respected by the other new moms and the shelter staff alike. Follows all rules as that seems to promise the reward of good things to come, until… (She/Hers)
Luciana - Another shelter mom. Quiet and distant; rage, misplaced. (She/Hers)
Mel - A shelter mom. Brooding, angry. (They/Them)
Scarletta - Jazmine’s mom. Well, mother. Or, if we are being honest, the woman who gave birth to Jazmine and raised her, but doesn’t seem to have much use for her now that she can no longer claim Jazmine’s support checks.
Dominic - Jazmine’s dad. Full of bravado. A charmer. As much as he’s charmed his youngest daughter, a Daddy’s girl, he is distant, out of reach, and if he can help it, out of sight.
Derek - A dream. An aspiring rapper. Jazmine’s baby-daddy. The promise of him is just as smooth, and maybe just as out of reach, as Dominic’s.
Gert - The shelter’s director. An enforcer. But is growing weary of the task.
Matteo - A handsome medical resident in the ER.
Carmela - A corner store clerk.

By Heather Christian
SYNOPSIS: NONE: A PRACTICAL BREVIARY, a reimagined monastic 3pm mass — traditionally set to the commemoration of Jesus’s death on the cross — is the next in Heather Christian's PRACTICAL BREVIARY series and seeks to beautify a moment to leave our busy fractured world and all its noise for long enough to recover from it. The NONE is an event more than a traditional musical, a light and sound feast (environment and light design by Jeanette Yew) and features a 13 member ensemble led by Christian as cantor to explore and excavate this feeling of abandonment by the divine, mirrored in a walk out into space. Rather than a linear narrative, the NONE is adapted from the traditional Psalms of the 3pm monastic masses paired with ancient mystic Sufi texts, planetary treatises by Carl Sagan and Neil DeGrasse Tyson, as well as Meister Eckhart sermons — we walk out into space to confront God in the “heavens” and sing our questions to the seeming void. The music is lush, an infusion of gospel, classical, neo-soul and rock, played by a teacup orchestra alongside NASA field recordings from our solar system. This version at New York Stage and Film (SAF) is the first time this material will be heard and is the beginning of a larger process/investigation into how light and sound can marry and make a new kind of expressive storytelling — SAF audiences are invited to be with us mid-process while starting to crack open that very important piece of the show. As with Christian’s other breviary masses, the NONE is a secular riff on a mass for atheists and agnostics and amateur physicists and devouts of all religions in this specific time of social injustice, political rage, environmental catastrophe and pervading anxiety that hopes to shine enough light on the wound to treat it.
