New Musical Looking for Available Director, Producer or Theater
by Keith Behrendt 03 Dec '25

03 Dec '25

I am looking for local theaters to perform this show as well as directors or producers interested in adapting this musical. “WANATAK" is a fun light original musical comedy targeted to both mature and young audiences. Reading groups have provided positive feedback with several participants pointing out how well it dealt positively with brother / sister issues, strained relationships, illness and death in the family, and questioning dating relationships. In the story, Trisha and Kyle are camp counselors, taking two kids to a fun-filled week in summer camp; they inadvertently end up at Camp Wanatak where they face fun, suspicion, loss, enlightenment, and love of course. Wanatak features 11 original songs with 9 or more cast members. This musical play was written to be adaptable to a wide variety of venues including small stage, small room, or adjusted to a larger stage. I can provide a script and links to sample music upon request. Please contact me if you are interested. Keith Behrendt kdbehr(a)gmail.com

Our joys, our struggles, our hopes, our revolutions, and all of the thrilling things about the performing arts that create our identity and our culture.” — August Scarpelli, Artistic Director* Along with the season announcement, you’ll also get a preview of what’s to come for our *Five Bucks Series*, special programming, and a few behind-the-scenes projects we’ve been quietly building toward all year. We’ll be accepting donations throughout the night, and every contribution helps bring these plans to life. Your ticket supports more than one evening—it sustains accessible theatre, community programs, artist development, and the evolving vision of a theatre that has always belonged to its community. *Join us for a night where great food, great company, and great art meet—and where the future of WRP is unveiled, one remarkable announcement at a time.* *A Taste of the Season <www.thewrp.org/tasteoftheseason>* Sunday, December 7, 2025 7:00–9:30 PM NuVue Bar & Grill · Bath, Ohio *$75 per guest* (buffet · entertainment · season reveal · special announcements) -- This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
