The Conversation follows Marcus (Tony Award-winner Joshua Henry) and Elle (Julia Harriman) from the electric spark of their first date to move-ins, milestones, and the slow accumulation of everything left unsaid. The Conversation is an unflinching portrait of what it truly means to open your heart to another person.

The score, written by Henry and Harriman, weaves soul, R&B, and modern pop into bold musical theater storytelling that is intimate, honest, and emotionally gripping. With a book by Nick Green and directed by Tony Award-winner Kenny Leon, The Conversation asks what it takes to choose love, even when it hurts, and what it takes to stay.
