This was an extracurricular exercise, to adapt the popular children's story into a 5-minute musical.

10-minute musicals are tricky enough, but cut the time in half and you double the challenge. Scott's musical style was a perfect fit, and he crafted catchy, upbeat melodies that were a blast to write to.

We recorded it with two terrific actors, Mark and Lucy. I was fortunate to work with Lucy several times; she is incredibly talented and a joy to be around.
