In Pieces is an anthology musical weaving the romantic journeys of six people across three chapters of life. Featuring book, music and lyrics by Joey Contreras (Fred Ebb Award finalist and Jonathan Larson Grant finalist), In Pieces has gained popularity with millions of streams, and a growing social media presence, while becoming a popular licensed property (40 productions around the world including Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, London and around the US). The creative team is continuing to develop the musical for a commercial engagement.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Says Bagley: “Working on In Pieces over the last two years has been such a dream. I\u2019ve never been on the ground level of a new musical in development, so I\u2019m learning so much about how things evolve throughout the process and with that, I’ve loved exploring this character of Charlie every step of the way. He\u2019s sensitive, he\u2019s funny, he’s open-hearted. A very pure soul. I instantly connected to his journey and I\u2019m excited for others to meet him through this gorgeous musical.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Adds Contreras: \u201cIn this moment in the show, we\u2019ve just seen Charlie go through a turbulent high school romance with someone who wasn\u2019t ready to accept his sexuality. But for Charlie, he\u2019s not afraid of his queerness, so heading into college he\u2019s open-minded, and swooning over new romantic possibilities. Especially ones from Ohio.\u201d<\/p>\n
