It Was A Thing!

Tune in Time came and went, and Jimmy won!

The Full rundown

It’s SHOWTIME!

The format of the show teams up 3 composers with 3 lyricists and nobody knows who’s on what team until being introduced onto the stage. Jimmy was matched with Derek P. Hassler on Team C. Throughout the show, each participant gets to showcase a number from a project they are working on… 1) for the exposure and 2) to make sure that if whatever they write in 20 minutes is awful, they can at least prove they’re not terrible in real life! Guest celebrity judges (this show featured Lee Wilkof, Darryl Winslow and Leah Hocking) rated against the following criteria:

  • Did the song make sense with the selected words? (more on this later)
  • Was the song in the right genre based on what the team landed on? (more on this later, too)
  • Was it ‘a thing‘? You know…like…was it a thing?

Last time, Jimmy was paired with Marc Acito of Broadway’s Allegiance. Their horror musical number from the non-existent The Dancing Flamingo was a creepy song titled The Flamingo Flamenco. They were this close to the win, but were defeated in a battle of wits. It’s time for redemption! …view the rest

To steal from the York’s website:

In this “Musical Theater Olympics,” 3 teams of composers and lyricists who’ve never worked together are forced to collaborate – and to beat the clock. Their task? They must write a song from a new Broadway musical, the title of which is picked from a hatful of audience suggestions – in the style determined by a spin of the dreaded Genre Wheel. Can they write a TUNE IN TIME?

But wait! there’s more!

In addition to the fact that this will be an exciting chance to see Jimmy put his skills to the test, he will be performing a song from Lasagna Mañana with …view the rest
