What do you send an author's agents to convince them to let you adapt a novel into a musical? To start with, a couple songs from the proposed adaptation! But how do you decide what should be a song? How do you write a song like this in the first place?
And most importantly, how do you present it to the author and her agents? You can't just send them sheet music! (Honestly, I wouldn't even send musicians only sheet music.) What ends up on the page is only a fraction of the story; it's the people who bring it to life who make the real magic. In this case, I reached out to Jayke Workman to sing Dex's first song, "A Moment," and to Meagan Reyes to sing Delia's first song, "Back to Us," and the two of them aboslutely blew me away. Check out their other material on YouTube and Spotify, and also listen to the official demos they recorded!
