⭐ ANIMAL FARM MUSICAL ANNOUNCED – BOOK BY JAMES GRAHAM – MUSIC BY ALAN MENKEN – LYRICS BY GLENN SLATER ⭐
A new stage musical adaptation of the George Orwell’s Animal Farm is being developed it has been announced.
The book is being written by acclaimed playwright James Graham (Quiz) with music by Academy Award winning composer Alan Menken and lyrics by Tony Award-nominated lyricist Glenn Slater.
Menken and Slater have previously collaborated many times, with notable work including the stage musical adaptation of Sister Act and Disney’s animated classic Tangled.
Orwell’s ‘fairy story’, a scathing satire of Soviet communism, is as potent now as it was in 1945. Animal Farm is one of literature’s most electrifying examinations of power and corruption.
Produced by Adam Spiegel Productions (Motown), the production does not currently have a director.
Workshops will be happening in Spring 2021.
