Solstice: A New Musical

Loosely based on Robert Frost’s “The Road Not Taken”, Solstice follows a group of young adults living in a small suburb in Upstate NY. As part of his senior thesis project for a contemporary drama class, James Foster is asked to write a revision of a work of art as to reimagine it from the perspective of his adult self.  After he chooses “The Road Not Taken,” he travels down a path of self-reflection, forcing him and his peers to ask themselves again the true purpose of their coming together — the mistakes they’ve made, the paths they’ve forged, and the lives they have yet to live.

A staged reading of Solstice: 

A New Musical by local composer Ben Rowley will take place on 

 5/19/23 and 5/20/23

at the Charles R. Wood Theater Cabaret Space
