Benjamin Hey! Performs Early Cuts of Corona Crazy on Insta
Back when the pandemic was raging in the Spring 2020, my collaborator, Benjamin Hey! wrote a cycle of 12 songs for which I wrote characters and a book that became Corona Crazy: The ZOOMusical. As Ben wrote each song, he posted a kooky heartfelt video of himself on Instagram performing each song in a different persona and home-made costuming. These videos made me laugh (and sometimes cry) at his antics and his pathos — and inspired me to suggest that we turn them (and others!) into a musical with 10 characters — all of whom would be loosely based on the personality contained in the heart of each song. I hope you enjoy them as much as I (and Ben) did!!! Stay tuned for the actual musical to be performed online on Zoom with actors in 9 squares on the screen!
