ABOUT THE PRODUCTION
Welcome to the little Southern town of Good, Alabama. It’s wild, woodsy, down-home…and very, very haunted. One hundred years ago, a love triangle ended in an act of racist violence that seems to repeat in every generation—until now. This dark and lyrical tale pits good old-fashioned American denial against the redemptive power of facing your truth.

I’m excited to welcome you to Iron John: An American Ghost Story, MSM Musical Theatre’s fifth virtual musical and third collaboration with the video production team at Super Awesome Friends — Jim Glaub, Scott Lupi, and Rebecca Prowler.
They, along with our directors, choreographers, designers, musical directors, musicians, stage managers, Zoom managers, assistants, editors, production staff, and incredible student crews have made these virtual performances possible.
Following the lead of the theatre industry, we’ve adapted to a new medium and adjusted our creative impulses from stage to screen.
With the virtual process, the MSM Musical Theatre program turned pandemic challenges into positive and valuable learning experiences for our students, introducing them to self-recording techniques and preparing them to engage in a transformed industry.
All productions have been filmed following all MSM COVID-19 regulations, including physical distancing, room vacancy, and face-covering requirements.
Some scenes include multiple students without face coverings who are made to appear together through video editing.
Students appearing without face coverings recorded themselves alone in a room, in their homes, and/or in accordance with local safety protocols in their location.
We hope you enjoy the show!
Be well, Liza Gennaro
