Barestage Production’s 24-Hour Musical: The Little Mermaid

In May of 2024, I had the honor of co-directing Barestage Production’s first 24-hour musical alongside Micaela Bowers. Our goal was to include as many new faces as possible and to give students who didn’t get a chance to participate in any shows during the year a chance to perform. With a cast of 22 people and a crew of 13 people, our one-night-only production of The Little Mermaid housed a sold-out audience who could not stop raving about the cast’s talent and the quality of the production.
