“One Tree Hill” actress Bethany Joy Galeotti, whose original aspirations were for Broadway musical theater, and music producer/songwriter Ron Aniello have teamed to create a new musical based on Nicholas Sparks’ “The Notebook.”
“It was something that I just wanted to do as my own project,” Galeotti said. “I just thought, ‘Man this will be so great. I just have to get this out. I feel music attached to this story and I have to write this music out and I have to make it into a play. And whether anything happens to it or not, I just have to get it out creatively for myself.’ ”
The duo plan to present a musical workshop of the production in early October in Wilmington.
Maybe you think the show doesn’t have a shot in hell, but Galeotti has started to make her name in the music world (listen to her sing) and as a child vying for Broadway “would always get really close and then never quite make it.”
What do you think? Flop? Hit?
I’m really confident that this project is going to be a hit. I cannot wait to see the musical.
