Now and Then

Now and Then
Now and Then is a musical which had its World Premiere in Wilton Manors (Fort Lauderdale area) in September of 2018 with rave reviews and a run of sixteen shows.

The music style is folk with a little bit of country for good measure. The actors will play guitar on stage creating an intimate experience.

Six actors, three guitars, one same sex couple. We follow the lives of Daniel and Greg over the course of 40 years together.

The show is crisp, funny, and touching.

Audiences were captured as we shared their life’s journey.
