| Beschreibung | Abstract ; Unrestricted In February of 2010, Griffin Matthews and Matt Gould presented their original musical, Witness Uganda, at the American Society of Composers and Publishers (ASCAP) /
Disney Musical Theater Workshop at the Disney Studios in Burbank, California. Although the musical was still only half-complete, the panel—consisting of Paris Barclay, Paul Lazarus, and Stephen Schwartz—responded positively, and Pasadena’s Boston Court Theater invited Gould and Matthews to develop their musical over the summer and present the premiere at Boston Court the following fall.; Matthews and Gould originally developed the musical score for a fundraiser event benefitting Matthews’s not-for-profit organization, Be The Change (Uganda). After the incredible audience response at their first presentation in New York, however, the two decided to turn the songs into a full-length musical theater production. Now, they are working on an internet-based campaign—inspired by and modeled after president Barack Obama’s efforts—which they hope will get them to Broadway. In a world where their peers are connected through global social networks, and spend hours each day in front of their computers, Witness Uganda is working to rewrite the musical theater success story—starting in Los Angeles.
