Writing Plays/Screenwriting - New Musical needs exposure


Expert: Don Vasicek - 10/26/2009

Question
Hi Don,
For the past 5 years we have been developing a new musical for its road to Broadway.  It has been tested in many forms and re-written, re-written and re-written again.  Readings, performances, concerts of songs, all have been performed live to much praise.   A NY theatre company even recommended going to Disney Theatricals with the show.  It is a very Disney-esque style show set in a fantasy world.  We have been told our musical will be able to compete even with Wicked!  We are looking for representation and recommendations to producer(s) who might be interested in staging a production of Spellbound the Musical.  If you can help in any way, I would be eternally grateful, even if you are able to give us the names of people who could help.  Here is our website: www.spellboundthemusical.com.

Many thanks in advance for your time.
With kind regards,
Paul

Answer
Paul,

I apologize for taking so long to answer your question.
I've been shooting a film and just back to my computer.

The first step you should considering taking is to shoot
a teaser of your musical.  Most producers will want to
see that first.  Once you accomplish that, you should
then hire a producer's representative to help you place
your teaser with producer's.  You can also cold call
producers with your pitch.  "The Hollywood Creative
Directory" is a good place to find the kind of producer
you're seeking.

I hope this has been of help to you.

Best Regards,
Don
