ANMT Announces Winners of Its 2010 Search For New Musicals
The results are in - and three lucky writing tems have garnered the top prizes in the third annual Search for New Musicals hosted by the Academy for New Musical Theatre in Los Angeles.
First Prize - which is a workshop with the famed Academy Repertory Company (ARC) and a concert reading as part of ANMT's 2010-11 season - went to Gilbert & Sullivan on Wall Street, book & lyrics by Charles Veley, music by Arthur Sullivan, a loving homage to the world of W.S. Gilbert set to the music of Arthur Sullivan and updated to the current stock market crisis.
The Second Prize of an ANMT staff table reading went to The Next Fairy Tale, by Brian Pugach, which tells the story of the chaos created in fairy-tale land when the object of the Prince's affection turns out to be - another Prince!
The Third Prize of a detailed dramaturgical analysis went to Stranger to the Muse, book and lyrics by Patrick Gallagher and music by Adam David Cohen, an examination of love through the eyes of an aspiring screenwriter.
Every entry in the Search receives an evaluation overview or a detailed video analysis. The dramaturgical feedback is very much appreciated by the participants, as indicated by one entrant who said 'We feel as if a nurturing dramaturgical Mary Poppins has visited us with wonderful insightful nourishment. Your suggestions are invaluable!'
