Abstract

Scotch: Un Operachi Romantico is a musical comedy in three acts. The musical was written to explore the existential crisis of a romantically spurned musician dealing with a crisis of faith while exploring his personal relationships and pasts while spending his evening drinking alone in his bathroom over the course of a single night. The work deals with exploration of such themes as unrequited love, alcoholism, broken families, friendship, and depression. The work was created as an exploration of writing for live theater, as well as the process involved in conceptualizing settings, use of the stage, structure, and writing for live actors.
