FALLING OUT is a bold and dynamic new immersive musical from Nashville singer/songwriter, Josée Weigand-Klein, that follows a group of young, struggling musicians navigating the chaos of life and the chase of professional success. Set in a bar during an open-mic night, the story unfolds through live performances, pulling the audience into a vibrant, music-fueled world. As the night progresses, the emotional highs and lows of chasing dreams and love come into sharp focus. Designed as a showcase for actor-musicians, this show captivates with raw energy, powerful storytelling, and a passionate original score.

The team of FALLING OUT is committed to diversity in casting and encourages performers of all genders, gender presentations, ethnicities, abilities, and backgrounds to submit for these roles. When a gender is included in a character description, it refers only to the gender identity and/or presentation of that character as scripted by the writer and not that of the performer.

This is a NY local project – producer cannot provide housing for the duration of the rehearsals or production.
