New World Stages Stage V

Make Me a Song: The Music of William Finn is a celebration showcasing the songs of one of the most acclaimed composer-lyricists currently writing for the musical theatre. A two-time Tony Award winner for the groundbreaking musical, Falsettos, and The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, William Finn is a true living legend. Make Me a Song is big, boisterous and life-loving, like Finn himself.



This poignant and compelling revue effortlessly weaves together songs from Finn's rich and touching songbook. Featuring classics from his hit shows juxtaposed with rarely heard selections from Romance in Hard Times, Elegies and the yet-to-be-produced The Royal Family, these treasured tunes tell personal, haunting and often hilarious tales.
