Idea For A Musical
I think this may be my summer project:
Scott, an up-and-coming musical theater writer, suffers a horrific injury which leaves him significantly brain damaged. Unable to take care of himself, he moves in with his younger brother Seth, a young entrepreneur living in Chicago. With his mother unwilling to acknowledge her older son's condition as permanent, his live-in fiancee Erica dealing with the added demands on his time (and apartment space), and Scott's lover Brian battling his own guilt with both his involvement in Scott's injury and his subsequent abandonment, Seth is suddenly thrust into a situation that forces him to reevaluate everything in his life. In his rare internally-lucid moments, Scott sees all the action in a series of musical fantasies.
In other news, back in Cambridge. It's raining, and supposed to continue to rain for the next 7 days.
