RED SKY APPEARS IN LOS ANGELES

Los Angeles, CA — A bold new musical experience is on the horizon. Red Sky, an epic sci-fi musical about how life endures in the aftermath of the end of the world.

From the creative forces behind the Emmy, Hugo, and Saturn Award winning musical Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, and the executive producers of Marvel’s longest running live-action series, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Red Sky marks an ambitious new entry into storytelling for the stage from a team with a proven track record of blending genre with music in innovative ways.

Featuring music, lyrics and book by Jed Tucker Whedon, story by Jed and Zack Whedon, musical direction by Dan Lipton, and produced by Maurissa Tancharoen, Red Sky explores resilience, survival, and the fragile threads of human connection that persist even after catastrophe. Blending cinematic scope with an intimate emotional core, the musical delivers a sweeping, character-driven narrative lifted by a dynamic original score.

A 29-Hour reading this month will feature Broadway and Hollywood talent including Anthony Lee Medina (Hamilton), Olivier nominee Jon Jon Briones (Hadestown), Lana McKissack (Countdown), John Clarence Stewart (Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist),Mike Ostroski (The Morning Show), Ren Hanami (Lola), Julia Doty (Wizard of Oz), Jasiana Caraballo (Rent), and Carlos Ragas (The Brother’s Sun). Casting is by Zachary Spiegel, CSA.

The upcoming presentation builds on a successful 2025 table read at IAMA Theatre Company and represents a more fully realized version of the piece as it moves toward a full-scale production this fall.
