Darling Grenadine
Meet fun-loving jingle composer Harry. In modern Manhattan, his charmed life with girlfriend Louise, brother Paul and beloved Labrador Retriever (also Paul!) sparkles with the fizz of romantic comedies and the whimsy of MGM musicals. But will it all go flat when reality interrupts Harry’s tenderly orchestrated fantasia? A rich contemporary score explores the friction between romance and reality, bitter and sweet, high and low. Raise a glass to a musical serving something magical, moving and boldly new.
Darling Grenadine was first presented as a concert reading at Rockwell Table & Stage in Los Angeles, May 2015. Work on the show continued at the Johnny Mercer Writers Colony at Goodspeed Musicals and the 2016 National Music Theater Conference at the Eugene O’Neill Theater Center. In August 2017 Darling Grenadine had it’s developmental production at Goodspeed’s Norma Terris Theatre.
