The Fitzgeralds of St. Paul

Book, Music and Lyrics by Christie Baugher

The Fitzgeralds of St. Paul is a two-person, one act full-length chamber musical about F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, celebrated literary figures of the Jazz Age. Part memory play, part gin-soaked vaudeville, The Fitzgeralds of St. Paul is a fictionalized, hyper-theatrical imagining of an infamous marriage – an evening in which two tragic, larger-than-life icons of a bygone era finally get to tell their story.

​​

A preview production of The Fitzgeralds of St. Paul is being presented November 8-24, 2024 by Irish Classical Theatre Company in Buffalo, NY, directed by Danny Mefford and featuring Jewell Wilson Bridges as Scott and Shannon O'Boyle as Zelda, with orchestrations by Frank Galgano and Matt Castle.  For more information, check out Irish Classical's website.

​

The Fitzgeralds of St. Paul was presented in part at the 2023 ASCAP Musical Theatre Workshop (Stephen Schwartz, Artistic Director) in Los Angeles, directed by Danny Mefford and featuring Jewell Wilson Bridges as Scott and Shannon O'Boyle as Zelda.  This presentation featured music supervision and direction by Matt Castle and Frank Galgano, accompaniment by Gregory Nabours, and was produced by Anne Kelly (executive producer, Switchboard Operations).
