Center Stage Records has released an EP featuring selections from It’s Kind of a Funny Story: A New Musical in streaming and digital formats.
With music and lyrics by Drew Gasparini and a book by two-time Tony nominee Alex Brightman, the EP includes the songs “Where I’m At” (performed by Casey Likes, with background vocals by Rozie Baker), “What the Get” (performed by Tony winner James Monroe Iglehart), and “The Question Game” (performed by Isabella Esler and Jackson Chase).
It’s Kind of a Funny Story is based on the 2010 Focus Features film, written and directed by Anna Bodin and Ryan Fleck, as well as the book by Ned Vizzini, and is produced by special arrangement with Universal Theatrical Group.
The musical version debuted in 2017 in a concert at Manhattan's 54 Below. This past summer, a reading was presented at the Powerhouse Theater with direction by Sarna Lapine, music direction by Alex “Goldie” Golden, and casting by Jenny Ravitz.
The EP is produced by Lisa Dozier Shacket, Ian Kagey, and Gasparini. Stream or download the tracks by clicking here.
