The new musical King of Pangea, with a book, music, and lyrics by Martin Storrow, will play a world premiere engagement at London's King's Head Theatre June 7-July 6, 2025. Richard Israel will direct.
Set on the island of Pangea, the work follows Christopher Crow, who escapes to the imaginary island of his childhood after the loss of his mother. With help from a wise-cracking prophet, a swaggering ship captain, and a star-gazing poetess, Crow sets off on a journey to claim his sovereignty.
King of Pangea was developed at the Barn on Fire Residency and with Aubrey
Swander, presented at the National Alliance for Musical Theatre’s Festival of New Musicals, and presented and developed in part at Lyric Theatre of
Oklahoma and Aurora Theatre. The work contains excerpts of the poem "Wisteria" by Claudia Axe.
Straighten Your Crown Productions (Nicole LaFountaine) and 16th & 8th Productions (Jaime Bartolett and Lucas Katler) will serve as producers. The executive producer and general manager will be DEM Productions.
