STRICTLY LIMITED ENGAGEMENT BEGINS WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2006 AT THE SAGE THEATRE

The New York Musical Theatre Festival and Matt Wolf proudly present the world premiere of DRIFT, a new musical by Jeremy Schonfeld (music and lyrics) and Craig Pospisil (book), which will presented as part of the third annual New York Musical Theatre Festival.

Directed by Jeremy Dobrish (The Joys of Sex), DRIFT begins performances on Wednesday, September 13, 2006 at the Sage Theatre (711 Seventh Ave., between 47th and 48th Sts.).

DRIFT is the story of David Harris, a struggling musician and songwriter in the middle of a devastating divorce. His break-up is complicated by the fact that David and his wife Laura are the parents of a young child, who they both desperately want to protect.

To deal with the emotional blow, David joins a therapy group and is introduced to a variety of men – some of whom are in the middle of their own separations or custody battles, and some of whom have already gone through what David is now experiencing.

A heart-wrenching, affecting and often humorous show about the effects divorce has on everyone who goes through it, DRIFT is one man’s story of overcoming life’s various hurdles as he struggles to be a good father, pick up the pieces and forge a new life.

The musical is based on an original concept album, also titled DRIFT, by Jeremy Schonfeld (2001, Sh-K-Boom Records).
