I am writing a musical and a play the sane story

[@coreypack]

I'm more so writing a biopic about a fictional but legendary girl group in the 80's in which the music would be heard and seen through stage performances along with recording sessions and music videos!

Thanks, Michael. I've been enjoying your videos this last week, and have been considering your offer of an initial 30-minute call. But on my browser, I can't see anything the 'Reserve a Call with Michael' heading. Could you please check if there might a tech bug on your site?

Thanks for the comment - I'm glad the videos have been useful! Do you have any blockers on your browser that might stop the form from loading? From what I can tell it's working, and I've received submissions through that form before as well. You can also try using the Contact form, if that one shows up for you!

This shows me I probably shouldn’t make what I’m thinking a musical. But also. I can’t make any music aside from sad identity crisis sounding ones 😂

[@musicaltheatrewriterguy]

It never hurts to experiment and see if it's viable! And you never know, you might find some other new sounds along the way 😀

[@naomi_x3928]

@@musicaltheatrewriterguy The only issue was that all the questions you asked about why make the musical and stuff is, I couldn’t answer any of it and it’s about F1 and I feel like it’s not a great idea for someone at my level. But, then I also wanted to try and do a Bridgerton musical, but I know there’s been a controversy about that topic right now.

@@naomi_x3928 Of course you do what works for you, but it may just take some time and thinking to figure out the answers to those questions. You may not need to throw out the ida just yet! Or there may be another better one right around the corner!
