At UTA, I had the chance to meet and work with songwriting duo, Benj Pasek and Justin Paul! These guys are incredible, and are up-and-coming in the theatre world, developing music for tv shows, and being commissioned to create musical adaptations of stories like James and the Giant Peach for Broadway. They were SO great with the kids, and were so fun to work with!
I am now borderline obsessed with their music which can be found and downloaded HERE or watched HERE!
Warning: Some of their lyrics would need to be edited before you sing them.
But the melodies and stories behind their songs are SO refreshing and alive, it's hard not to enjoy them! And it's such an opportunity to meet with people like this who really are making it in the theatre industry, and who in five or ten years will be world-reknown! SO much potential! SO much talent! SO much fun!
And how lucky are these Utah high school students who get to have these experiences as teenagers?!? JEALOUS!!!
