Open, Stay

By Anna Denoia

10+ actors, any gender

Spanning musical genres, Open, Stay is a collection of ten moments of connection- beginnings, endings and in-betweens, as well as moments that come long after we part ways. Full of laughter, loss, and lessons learned, it is an exploration of how we love and how we lose each other. Paranoia, grief, joy, jealousy - from awkward first encounters to bitter goodbyes, this new song cycle for the skeptical romantic wrestles with what we owe and what we can expect from one another.

Open, Stay can be performed in three different ways:

1. A 60 minute one-act with pre-written scenes (this book)

2. The song cycle: music only, no scenes. 45 minutes long.

3. Write your own scenes and make it as long as you want.
