Description

THE GARDEN BRIDGE

A New Musical

Book and Lyrics by Jill Ohayon
Music by Andy Li

The Steinburgs, a Jewish family from Vienna, arrive in Japanese-occupied Shanghai in World War II — one of the only places that would accept Jewish refugees without visas. Forced into the city’s poorest neighborhood, they find themselves living next door to the Yes, a Chinese family which has suffered its own share of loss. Despite language barriers, scarcity of resources, and the constant threat of violence, the two families fight to survive and develop relationships with one another in ways that will change them all forever. Against all odds, they’re able to form a new community against the backdrop of of a barbaric war.

WE’RE A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION FIGHTING FOR GENDER EQUITY IN THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY ACROSS THE UNITED STATES.

The core of our mission is to shape a more equitable world by creating more equitable entertainment, onstage and on screen. 

We know that what audiences watch in plays, musicals, films, and TV shows helps mold the way they see the world around them – and we want audiences to see shows by women & femme artists, through our lens. So, we work to combat the systemic inequities in the entertainment industry that keep women, transgender, and non-binary (TGNC) artists away from the vast majority of leadership roles behind the scenes. 

We focus most of our support on the original creators: playwrights, composers, and producers, as those are the roles that decide which stories get told onstage and on screen. Out of our four home base cities, New York, Dallas-Fort Worth, Los Angeles, and Atlanta, we work to make the entertainment industry – one of the largest contributors to the United States economy – reflect the rich diversity and cultural history of the US. We fight for equal opportunity, access, and representation of femme and marginalized-gender creatives nationwide.
