Featuring 14 original songs and a powerful contemporary script, Corona Crazy: The Musical follows nine neighbors living in a Midtown Manhattan apartment building as they navigate fear, loss, love, isolation, and resilience during the earliest days of the COVID-19 pandemic. Humor and heartbreak intertwine in songs such as Money Gettin’ Funny, Trapped & Alone, and Zoom School, capturing the lived experience of New Yorkers at the epicenter of a global crisis. The story begins in April 2020, two weeks into lockdown, when hospitals were overwhelmed and uncertainty dominated daily life. The action concludes one year later, in March 2021, as vaccines begin to roll out and the characters reunite for the first time—embodying the fragile hope of reconnection after prolonged separation. Created by Benjamin Hey! (music & lyrics) and Derek Denckla (book & co-writer), the musical was written in real time during pandemic lockdown, shaped by the creators’ lived experience of New York City at a historic crossroads. “Theatre has the power to transform isolation into solidarity,” said Denckla. “Memory fades quickly, but art keeps truth alive. This work preserves a vital chapter of our shared history.” “Watching these talented individuals bring this work to life with their emotional and vibrant performances has been beyond my wildest expectations,” said Benjamin Hey!, composer, co-writer, and co-producer of the musical.
