This has been an incredible undertaking. Years of work for Sean Lewis and a year of work for us, with these last months in a vast rehearsal space figuring out how to fit our music (new and old) into a new kind of musical. On April 11th patrons at Luther College's Center for Faith and Life were the first audience to ever see "All Recipes Are Home". The band is seated stage left and upstage of most of the action. The cast sings with us, to us or the audience and sometimes we operate as their inner voice or part of the chorus. At times our music underscores scenes, creating a sonic landscape in which scenes unfold and the story drives forward.  We arrived at these ways the music works in the piece through playing, experimenting, writing, scratching something and trying something new.
