The hopes, dreams, joys and concerns of the average working American are the focus of this unique, extraordinary musical. That the everyday lives of ?common? men and women should be so compelling and moving will surprise and inspire anyone who has ever punched a time clock.brbrBased on Studs Terkel?s best-selling book of interviews with American workers, strongWORKING/strong paints a vivid portrait of the men and women the world so often takes for granted: the schoolteacher, the parking lot attendant, the waitress, the millworker, the mason, the trucker, the fireman, the housewife, just to name a few. It?s a highly original look at the American landscape that?s simply impossible to forget.brbrWith extremely modest set and orchestra requirements, universal subject matter, and featuring a multi-ethnic ensemble cast of variable size, strongWORKING/strong is one of the most accessible, relevant and substantive musicals ever created. The new, revised version includes updated lyrics, a streamlined book and two new songs by a href="../biography.asp?writerid=3480"Stephen Schwartz/a and a href="../biography.asp?writerid=3338"James Taylor/a.
