Someone To Belong To
By Christine Denoon and Lorie Steele
Music by David Denoon
Directed by Leslie Collins
I have been busy directing an original musical debuting at The Peoples Improv Theater Sunday Nov 11th at 8 pm and Sunday night December 9th at 8 pm. The musical came to me from Christine Denoon, who wanted to write a musical based on her late father's compositions he left behind. David Denoon was a CLIO award winning copywriter who also had a passion for writing music and jingles. So, after many years of his songbook just collecting dust in the attic, Christine got it out and asked a friend to play all of these songs just to hear them. Some of them she remembered from her childhood and some she had never heard before. He even had music collaborations with famous composers such as Jerry Herman in this book and NEVER HAD ANYONE HEARD THEM!!! Anyway, she and Lorie Steele set out to write a book and use these beautiful songs in an original musical. They brought me on board to direct and here we are... "Someone To Belong To" I am so proud of this piece and I hope you'll come to see and hear this charming new musical. Follow her tumblr about the show! www.musicandlyricsbydaviddenoon.tumblr.com
