Candy Hearts, a musical play —2014
A provocative new musical play in the vein of Next to Normal, Spring Awakening, and The Scottsboro Boys, CANDY HEARTS explores of the cycle of domestic violence following three couples down the dark paths that blur the borders between love and control, passion and violence. With a sexy, pop-rock score (music by Robert Maggio) and a story that is both touching and tragic, (book/lyrics by Amy Buchwald), CANDY HEARTS received its first industry reading in February 2013. Amy Buchwald’s blog about the show appeared in the Huffington Post.
