A Commercial Jingle for Regina Comet is a hit new musical playing Off-Broadway in New York City and we caught up with the show’s creators and stars to learn more about them!
Alex Wyse and Ben Fankhauser wrote the book, music, and lyrics for the new musical and they also star in the show alongside Bryonha Marie Parham, who plays the title character.
Here’s the synopsis: “Two nobodies dream of writing one hit song for everybody, but their day job composing jingles for commercials isn’t the big break they hoped. That is, until they’re plucked from obscurity by a world-famous pop star named Regina Comet (if destiny had a child, it would be her) and she wants them to create an anthem for her supernova pipes… and her new perfume. They’re so close to the big-time they can smell it, but following your passion doesn’t always lead where you expect. Making a hit song can be a shit-show.”
The musical recently extended due to popular demand and it is now running through November 21 at the DR2 Theatre.
