Why is this show unique?
Acceptance and LGBTQIA are no strangers to the stage or screen whether it be a comedy, drama, or musical but WRONG IN ALL THE RIGHT WAYS (WIATRW) places 4 people from different age groups from different aspects within the LGBTQIA community in the same playing field sharing a common bond of a journey that brings them all together.
Our musical is for performers of young and mature age. The characters all vary in age and desire and all hold an equal opportunity to sing their story.
Production-wise, the music has been fully produced and can be performed in a variety of ways, from a full backing tape to a blend of backing and live to all live instrumentation.
Our vision for WIATRW is to be flexible. We want the story to be told in different languages, as the owners of the copyright we want to work with other writers who could help bring the narrative to life in different regions of the world.

Sensitive Content
Wrong in all the Right ways contains sensitive topics. We felt it was important to incorporate topics that we uncovered in our own research.
We didn’t want to just focus on sexual orientation, topics such as mental illness, suicide and drug references have been incorporated into the narrative in realistic ways.
WIATRW is a positive and uplifting story but its path isn’t an unrealistic one, it’s a blend of tragedy and triumph.
While researching and writing this story we received an education that we didn’t bank on. LGBTQIA are letters that represent communities that the greater community has designated them with. But it didn’t define the individuals we met along the way, what defined them was their humanity.
