Based on Studs Terkel's best-selling collection of interviews with the American workforce, Working comes from Grammy and Academy Award winner STEPHEN SCHWARTZ (Wicked; Godspell). This London cast recording documents the show as it was staged there.
Schoolteacher, housewife, fireman, waitress: the people the world tends to walk past get the microphone here, and their daily grind and hopes say something true about the country they belong to.
Contributing composers include five-time Grammy winner JAMES TAYLOR and Pulitzer Prize winner LIN-MANUEL MIRANDA (Hamilton; In The Heights), and the score moves through a spread of musical styles. The result is a lively, modern look at what work means and what a musical can be.
Reviewers were warm. The Times called it "a slick, committed and superbly sung production… strikes a resonant chord".
The Stage went with "evocative and inspiring".
Time Out praised "an impressive ensemble of new and established talent."
Stage Review was blunter: "A five-star original … Working is astonishing and a remarkably fine achievement. It's unmissable."
