βWhen we first began this musical journey, we had no idea where it would take us. The opportunity to work with such creative and talented artists is inspirational. Itβs so exciting to see the songs weβve performed for 42 years morph and fit so beautifully into the story weβve always cherished. The recent shutdown allowed us the time to expand this new production into something more extraordinary than we ever imagined. Weβre thrilled that live performances have started again, and grateful for the opportunity to showcase Invincible The Musical in front of an audience where it belongs,β� said co-creators Benatar and Giraldo in an earlier statement.
The musical was seen in 2019 in a staged concert presentation in Sag Harbor as part of Bay Street Theater's Under the Stars Community Outreach Program. The company included Judy McLane, Matt Doyle, and Howard McGillin.
Jamie Cesa and Bel Chiasso Entertainment produce.
