“Duet for Three” is a world-premiere musical about Kay Swift, the first woman to fully score a Broadway musical. With a book by David Caudle using Kay’s original music, “Duet for Three” tells the story of her complicated relationships with her husband and lyricist, Paul James; and her lover George Gershwin. Kay Swift was a Juilliard-trained pianist who went on to be a leading expert on Gershwin’s music after his sudden death. I was super tickled to play Kay (and a metric ton of piano music) in this brand-new piece!
Part of Amas Musical Theatre’s “Dare to be Different” Festival.
