“Not the Life I Ordered” is the story of two brothers who couldn’t be more different. Both have some struggles and secrets, but the power of family and following your dreams prove stronger than they know.
Artistic Notes
According to artistic director Tony Broom, “This is a bit like a musical Irish Odd Couple, if that makes sense." He said, "This is our second time getting to work with the creator of a play and our first musical. We’re all pretty excited.”
What about having two different casts? “That was Dezy’s idea and I think it was a good one. You get a different perspective on the characters depending on which show you see.”
