The Story of a Daughter

Music by: Matthew Nassida
Lyrics & Book by: Zoe Howard

Adapted from Hans Christian Anderson’s The Story of a Mother this tale reveals a little girl stuck in the hospital from a terminal illness. Secretively under the ever watchful eye of her worried mother she meets with Death. As an argument ensues over who knows what is best for the little girl she finally speaks up and chooses her own path. Showing that in cases of illness we often forget to ask the person going through it what they truly want for our own needs.

Story of a daughter was performed at NYU on May 3rd, 2022.
A reading of the show was then performed at the Irvington Theater in Irvington, NY on March 25th, 2023 as a part of their yearly theatre festival.
