Synopsis
An astounding musical that paints an indelible portrait of America’s
workforce – the millworkers, truck drivers, firemen, meter readers,
teachers, waitresses, executives, housewives – the people who keep
America moving and make it so uniquely “American”. Featuring
music by James Taylor, Stephen Schwartz, Micki Grant, and others
and based on interviews by the great Studs Terkel, this is a musical
certain to touch a chord in every theatre-goer’s heart.
“Millwork ain’t easy,
Millwork is hard…”
