We find ourselves in the Italian North End 1919 where immigrant families struggle to grab their chance at the American Dream. Molasses offers work, hope and a chance at romance. No one ever thought that a tank holding two million gallon of molasses would burst changing their life forever. A true event based on the Boston Molasses Disaster of 1919.
Molasses in January is an original musical play shown Off Broadway for the first time.
This is a total new story, new music, written to be a musical play. It is fun, exciting, great entertainment for all ages!
This production is done in the traditional musical style of the great American Song Book.
A timeless musical that will make you laugh and cry, reminding us that life can change in the moment.
