• Adventure Time: the Musical

  Posted by gmadmin   |   April 2, 2013

  My buddy recently introduced me to the cartoon Adventure Time, and I am hooked! Wouldn’t an Adventure Time Musical be rad? It’s already pretty musical:
  It reminds me of “Hollis’ Traveling Tree House & Dance Party,” a show I saw at a cool little theater in Phoenix called Space 55. They put on a new “episode” every month involving puppets, bizarre (usually pretty R-rated) humor, music, and a dance party at the end. Fun stuff!

  Kevin Frei’s Post-Modern Hipster Musical (You’ve Probably Never Heard of It)

  Or the “Hipster Musical” for short. I was thrilled to be able to see the premiere production of Kevin Frei’s Post-Modern Hipster Musical (You’ve Probably Never Heard of It) at Freedom High School just a few weeks ago. The show was a great success. I got there half an hour early and the place was already packed. They ended up bringing a bunch of extra chairs in because the show was over-sold. Here I am with the cast:
  
  You can see more pictures from the show at our facebook page. (Be sure to “like” us while you’re there!)
  You’ll find the music, a synopsis, and other information at the Hipster Musical show page. Or you can dig this little audio player I made using Youtube!
  If you would like to audition with any of our songs, be sure to check out our audition songs page.

• Getting the Hang of Things

  Posted by gmadmin   |   June 26, 2012

  I started Go Musicals a few years ago with just Final Vinyl. I put most of my savings into that show and made many expensive mistakes. It’s been a rough few years of learning and adapting. With The Branson Bandit Babes, I totally missed the mark and have basically had to shelve that show (which is a bummer because I think it’s pretty cool). With The Atomic Brain, I think I finally figured out what I want to do with this company. In the past year I have ramped up production drastically, and I think the quality of the work has improved across the board. The music for It’s a Wonderful Life is my best yet, and Night of the Living Dead might top it. By the end of this year, I will have tripled the size of my catalog.

  I plan to keep up this rate of production next year and the year after that. As the catalog expands and improves, I’ll get bolder about investing more into advertising. I’ll start looking to form more partnerships, and I’ll start submitting my stuff to contests, colleges, and community theatres in addition to high schools. In five years I want to have 15-20 musicals, 10+ one-acts, and a few straight plays. By that time I would like to hire someone to help me with sales and advertising so I can focus more exclusively on writing new stuff. Maybe I’ll form some partnerships in foreign markets to translate my shows into other languages.

  I’d also like to start making movies. I think I could adapt most of my shows for around $250k. Film versions of these musicals would make great sales tools, and I think the actors who perform in the stage versions would like to have a copy of the movie.

  I’m feeling so fired up right now! I’ve been staying with a friend in Denver (sleeping on the floor!) and I’m stoked to get home and get back to work! 🙂
