With an emotionally charged score of contemporary pop/rock theatre music, Songs For A New World takes us from the deck of a 1492 Spanish sailing ship to a ledge 57 stories above Fifth Avenue through 16 unique songs, each telling its own story: how to survive in a new set of circumstances – a new world – even against seemingly overwhelming odds. “It’s about one moment”, says Jason Robert Brown. “It’s about hitting the wall and having to make a choice, or take a stand, or turn around and go back.” These are the stories and characters of today; these are the songs for a new world.
