NEWS FROM THE STAFF
Announcing: NEW MUSICALS ONLINE!
Our new video release for this week is:
“A Song of Winds” and “Elanoy” with the Potato Face Blind Man.
Potato Face waxes nostalgic for the glory days of the wind-swept prairies in the powerful “Song of the Winds” by prairie poet Hamlin Garland. The episode concludes with the rousing call for homesteaders in “Elanoy.” This is an episode in the ongoing series “Slow Time on a Prairie Porch, with the Potato Face Blind Man.” It takes you back to a slower, more contemplative time. Slow down….
It’s a strange but exciting time at New Musicals Inc, as we explore the short-form online musical. Please visit us online for a new musical experiment every week. Free.
Although, DONATIONS are gratefully accepted!
