Starting Here, Starting Now is a vibrant, comical, and touching musical revue comprised of songs by Richard Maltby, Jr., and David Shire. This revue follows a winsome cast of four characters through the maze of modern relationships. As with all of Maltby and Shire's work, each song is an impeccably crafted story – original, engaging, and bursting with character, showcasing the performers' versatility and charisma. With its heart firmly on its sleeve, Starting Here, Starting Now expresses an energetic, intelligent optimism about life, love, and new beginnings.
