As previously reported, Serj Tankian is collaborating with playwright Steven
Sater on a musical called "Prometheus Bound", according to Spinner.com.
Tankian has already finished eight songs for the show, which is based on the
classic Greek tragedy. The Tony Award-winning Sater, who worked with musician
Duncan Sheik on the Broadway hit "Spring Awakening", said about the new show,
"It's got this amazing ancient Greek verse thing going on with this cool
electronic hyperspace rock. It's unlike anything you've heard."
Sater said that the show will probably open in Boston first before a New York
production is attempted, with an album also in the works.
The playwright added that he thinks the show could bring an entirely different
audience to see a musical, explaining, "I just saw (Tankian) in concert, that
audience was amazing...I think it will open up really different things for both
of us. It's a really exciting collaboration."
