And Then I Wrote A Song About It

About

The Diversionary Theatre production of And Then I Wrote a Song About It served as the West Coast premiere of this one-man musical. Directed by Igor Goldin, who also helmed the world premiere at Luna Stage, the San Diego engagement further developed the piece for a potential off-Broadway run. The staging centers on a tour-de-force solo performance by Nick Cearley, who originated the role, with original choreography by Antoinette DiPietropolo re-created for this engagement. Set to the rhythms of the disco era and beyond, the production aligns with Diversionary Theatre’s mission of producing work that explores LGBTQ+ themes. The creative team used the run to gauge how the material resonated with a new audience, with the intention that audience response would inform future rewrites and development.
