Wrapped
National Music Theater Network Director's Choice Award
A hip-hop musical . . . that'll warm your heart
Wrapped is a hip-hop musical that carries you into the soul of a struggling man, one part artist, three parts husband and father. Broken by the cold-hearted music industry and left hopeless to satisfy any of his wishes for his family, Benny crafts an unthinkably noble plan that unfortunately has nowhere to lead but the dumps. When all inevitably goes awry, he's left fighting twice as hard to try to put things back together for himself and his family.

Craig Nehamen (Lyrics/Music)
I graduated Washington University in St. Louis in '05 with a marketing major. My final year of school, after selling hip-hop tracks to artists in the St. Louis area, I decided to head for the arts instead of the office. I flew home, and along with my father, a late-budding screenwriter, I wrote Wrapped. I'm now working with a composer on some exciting new projects.
Dennis Nehamen (Bookwriter)
My educational background goes back to UCLA, where I attended as an undergraduate in political science and as a graduate in Business. Years later, after working as an accountant and managing a business, I returned to school to become a psychologist. I've been licensed to practice in California, well, a long time -- and continuing. My career, raising my family, a few outside interests; that's been my life for the past couple decades. But change has always been a good companion to me, and so I welcomed script-writing into my life. I've written 3 movie screenplays and 3 musical theatre books. |
