And I Think to Myself: How ‘A Wonderful World’ Made Its Way to Broadway

AMERICAN THEATRE: I’m writing this on the morning of Aug. 19, 2024. It’s the official start of Broadway rehearsals for A Wonderful World: The Louis Armstrong Story, a new musical for which I wrote the book. It seems like a good time to reflect on the journey that brought me here. This show had many starts and stops throughout the era of theatre quarantine, reopening, cancellations, and as such offers a case study in the way work has been developed in the midst of these challenges.
