Jeremy was invited to participate in the 2008 Summer Play Festival's Composer Exposure.
On June 25, Jeremy again participated in theAtrainplays, a daredevil theatre project in which playwrights, librettists, lyricists, composers, choreographers and directors create new work from scratch during the course of a single New York City subway ride. The performers, live band and designers then have 24 hours to put it all together, get off book, rehearse and perform the show.
Jeremy served as musical director for Broadway Boot Camp, a series of workshops and training sessions taught by esteemed Broadway professionals, including Gavin Creel, Amanda Watkins, Tyler Hanes, Norm Lewis, Blake Daniel, Daphne Rubin-Vega, and Jenn Gambatese. The week-long, Atlanta based camp culminated in a final concert presentation of beloved Broadway showstoppers entitled “Oh, What a Night.”
