​Elevator Heart, a concert reading, is a modular musical theatre piece built of vignettes that explore the diverse experiences of women in the 21st century. There's room for everyone's voice as the ensemble creates a world of songs, scenes, and monologues that explore the way we tell stories and lay bare the intersections of being a woman. Book & Lyrics by Sara Cooper, Music by Amy Burgess and Julia Meinwald, this concert will be directed by Dev Bondarin and music directed by Rich Silverstein. Elevator Heart was developed at the Tisch New Musicals Workshop at NYU with the Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program and the New Studio on Broadway, as well as through concerts at Dixon Place and The Producer’s Club. Elevator Heart received a 2016 New Works Grant from Queens Council on the Arts.
