Description

Honeck-Moss Productions is proud to present “In The Works.”  This exciting series is an opportunity for composers to try out new work in front of an audience and see how it plays in a supportive environment.  It is also a chance to create a community among the composers and their performers.

In The Works will be presented monthly and feature three composers or composer teams, each presenting about 20 minutes of new material.  This month features the works of composers: Joanna Burns & Lisa Mongillo, Rebecca Hart & Nick Stephens, and Eric Fegan & Jamie Elizabeth Maletz.  Hosted by: Thomas Honeck.

NICK STEPHENS has never accidentally won anything, and definitely not any comedy competitions. He is a composer, orchestrator, music director and musician based in New York. His musical Shadows (written with Morgan Smart) was developed and performed at NYU in the summer of 2019. He provided original orchestrations for the DC premiere production of Alix in Wonderland (w. Buzz Mauro,) also in the summer of 2019. He performs regularly around New York City with Rebecca Hart and the Wrong Band on trumpet, flugelhorn, and keyboards. Other performing highlights include Jazz at Lincoln Center and the Big Apple Circus. Since 2017, he has been developing Darling Jack with Rebecca Hart, and is thrilled to be presenting new material tonight!

He received his undergraduate degree in Mathematics with Computer Science from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he was a leading member of the MIT Musical Theatre Guild. Eric's musical interests range from classical repertoire to jazz standards to classic rock, and brings as much of it to the table as he can in his musical theatre work. ericfegan.com | @ericfeganmusic
