Congratulations To Simone Allen & Ed Rosini, Whose Musical SEE YOU HAVE ME, Will Kick Off The Strawberry One-Act Festival June 14th at 7pm



Simone Allen (Writer/Composer/Music Director, SEE YOU HAVE ME, A Musical) is a rising senior music student at Tufts University, where she is actively involved with musical theatre as a music director/pianist. She has music-directed eight productions at Tufts, including Next to Normal, Into the Woods, 35mm, and Little Shop of Horrors. Simone has also worked with composer Drew Gasparini as a pit orchestra musician and a music transcriptionist/copyist. See You Have Me is the first musical that Simone has written (along with co-book writer Ed Rosini) and she hopes to continue writing and composing for musical theatre. She would like to thank her family, her writing mentors, the Riant Theatre, the Tufts University music and drama departments, and her friends from Tufts for supporting her during the development of this musical.

Ed Rosini (Co-Book Writer, SEE YOU HAVE ME, A Musical) is a senior at Tufts University where he studies drama. See You Have Me was the first stage musical he’s written for, but in his time at Tufts, he’s written three original web series with his favorite writing partner (Jules and Monty, Wave Jacked and Pantheon University), wrote and directed an original podcast called The Valiant, and has worked on several other projects as well, including co-writing adaptations of Shakespeare’s works for children.
