THIS SHOW IS $

new musical workshopped with the civilians
Written with composer Gaby Alter

Based on actual interviews, and presented in June 2020 at the Civilan's R & D Lab, THIS SHOW IS MONEY is about American's love affair with the almighty dollar and asks how our choices with this fictional creation called money affects people around us in ways that are difficult to see.

From the pandemic to our system that was always broken, based on interviews from financial journalists to front line workers to privileged, rich artists, this musical exposes how our choices with money affect us all in unexpected, comic, drastic, and disturbing ways.

BLACK-EYED SUSAN

Music and Lyrics by Matthew McCollum
Book by Matthew McCollum and Crystal Skillman

Brightwater was a town in West Virginia, named after the untamed river that cut off its people from the rest of Appalachia. A town ruled by two households, both alike in dignity: had none. So when Rosie MacAleese fell in love with the son of her father’s nemesis…what on earth did she think would happen?


Black-Eyed Susan, formerly known asThe Ballad of Brightwater, has been developed through the ASCAP DreamWorks Musical Theatre Workshop, and was a finalist for the Dramatists Guild Fellows Program.
