Press & Reviews
ARE WE THERE YET? is a roller coaster ride through the lives of modern American families. This merry musical romp includes everything from hysterical family car trips and mothers praying for hits at their sons’ baseball games, to fathers sitting through balley lessons and the joy of sex after 60. This lively musical portrays the love and challenges of the old adage, “You can pick your friends but you can’t pick your family.” One thing is for sure, you will definitely relate to this family musical and “enjoy the ride!”
Rehearsal Tracks
Do you have trouble getting a rehearsal accompanist? When you order ARE WE THERE YET? materials, you can optionally purchase a set of REHEARSAL CDs. Every track of music in the show is performed on the piano by Composer John Glaudini. One CD contains piano tracks of accompaniment and vocal lines. The other is only the accompaniment.
Think how much easier and quicker your rehearsal process will be if you have a piano player “at your beck and call,” who knows the show and plays in the correct tempo every time!
