First Date
Book by Austin Winsberg
Music & Lyrics by Alan Zachary & Michael Weiner
Directed by Heather Frost
A restaurant in New York City. Aaron is a buttoned-up banker who's never done the blind date thing. Casey is an artist who's done it way too many times. They have nothing in common—and about ninety minutes to figure out if that matters. As the evening unfolds in real time, they're not alone: meddling friends, judgmental parents, and a parade of exes crash the dinner table, springing to life from their imaginations to offer unsolicited advice, sing uncomfortable truths, and make everything worse. Can two people with completely different baggage find something worth unpacking together before the check arrives? A contemporary musical comedy about the terrifying, ridiculous, occasionally wonderful act of showing up for someone new.
