WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

Glory Days, a new musical by Nick Blaemire (music and lyrics) and James Gardiner (book) is directed by Eric Schaeffer, who previously helmed the production's world premiere at the Signature Theatre in Arlington, VA.

Glory Days is the story of four best friends who reunite a year after high school graduation, only to find how much they have grown apart. As they attempt to understand each other's differences, they soon realize that nothing can compare to the glory days of high school when life was simpler. Set to a vibrant score, the musical is a witty, unflinching look at four guys who refuse to be defined by generational stereotypes as they struggle to find their place in the world.

The production features the acclaimed Signature cast: Steven Booth (Will), Andrew C. Call (Andy), Adam Halpin (Skip), and Jesse JP Johnson (Jack).

How did this make it to Broadway?
For a play with only 4 unknowns and no set or costumes, to speak of, one would expect the music and talent to be excepional. It was not. The story itself is so trite, it should be an Afterschool Special or on TLA video. The songs all sound the same and everything is just stated. Just horrible
