New Musicals SATURDAYS AT 10 AM To Debut At Hollywood Fringe Festival 2025

A hilarious and heartfelt new original musical comedy, Saturdays at 10am, makes its debut at the 2025 Hollywood Fringe Festival with a limited 5 show run at the Eastwood Performing Arts Center (1089 N Oxford Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90029).

With book & lyrics by JR Rubinger and music by JR Rubinger & Asha Iwanowicz, this world premiere will dazzle audiences with its inventive, catchy score and its dynamic, relatable characters.

Animation producer Mona can't draw to save her life, but she's on the verge of achieving her vicarious dream to launch a Saturday Morning Cartoon...until her creative director is indicted for sex crimes, canceling the project. Mona juggles the needs of her injured, ambitious, and love-sick artists while trying to appease her boys'-club-turned-boy-band bosses.

As the pressure builds, Mona must confront her own limiting beliefs about artists-and herself-before everything she's built comes crashing down.
