And for a little more info because they said it best…:

ABOUT FERGUSON & JAMAIL:
Rice University Alumni and co-collaborators Ryann Ferguson & Steven Jamail (of 2005 Fringe Festival’s Byzantium and Harper’s Guild Award Winners for Best Aria, “Lotus Song”) come from intensive theatre backgrounds ranging from production, to marketing, to lighting design, and composition, collectively. With successful experiences both together and apart, the two recently premiered their new musical, VOTE! in a private, industry-only reading, directed by Ryan J. Davis. The duo again team up with Davis, for this one night only concert with partial proceeds going to benefit Rock the Vote.

ABOUT VOTE THE MUSICAL:
VOTE! is a new musical about high school election espionage and the pursuit of a real dream that “counts,” as told by four ambitious youngsters and their teacher. The race forces them to consider the meaning and power of an individual vote and why they are really running (a timely coincidence, given that it dovetails with one of our most diverse and arguably important political seasons to date). VOTE! delivers an exciting outlet for all of us to consider what we’re voting for and who’s really behind the faces of a given candidacy.
