Rex Willis and Kelly Burnette, Composer and Director of the New Musical "Worthy Souls," Joins the Club
Manage episode 324063738 series 3333065
When Rex Willis' son Ryan joined some friends for a "Dumpster Diving" excursion a decade ago, Rex never knew it would lead to him composing his second musical. During the last ten years, Rex's extensive research on homelessness in our area, the real people who experience this plight, and the stories that got them in that situation led him to write a rock opera entitled "Worthy People."
Take a listen to this week's Suncoast Culture Club podcast as we learn about the process of writing, producing, and performing an original musical, as well as the deep passion for this societal issue that Rex has come to champion.
Join Rex Willis as composer and lyricist, Kelly Burnette as director, Logan Martin as music director, Josh Brammer as choreographer, and a cast and crew of State College of Florida alumni, students, and staff as they present a workshop of this decades in the making musical. "Worthy Souls."
Performances are Friday, June 11 and Saturday, June 12 at 7:30 in the SCF Neel Performing Arts Center with food for the SCF Food Pantry being your only expense to enter the show.
All SCF students, staff, and faculty will be admitted to the Neel Performing Arts Center with an SCF ID. All others who wish to attend should email Rex or Kelly at [email protected] or [email protected] to be added to the "Guest List" for admittance.
