Found has a book by Tony nominee Hunter Bell ([Title of Show]) and Lee Overtree and a score by Eli Bolin (Original Cast Album: Co-op). The musical is based on Davy Rothbart’s collection of stories from discarded notes and letters discovered by strangers with additional material created in collaboration with Story Pirates. The world premiere of the musical was held in 2014 at Off-Broadway's Atlantic Theatre Company.
