Created and composed by G. Victoria Campbell, Treeson bills itself as a “new original eco-musical about finding purpose in life by saving the earth.” The show follows Ash, an environmental activist in the Pacific Northwest who is the heir to their family’s logging empire, prompting a crisis of conscience and questions of ethics.
In celebration of Earth Day, the Treeson cast will perform selections from the show’s soaring soundtrack—which blends Indigenous, Western, folk and pop-rock music, with music and lyrics by Campbell—at 54 Below on Monday, April 22. Among the musical theater actors who will be taking the stage are Brooks Andrew, Madyson Bolton, DeShawn Bowens and Ashleigh Cassidy.
