SAM BALZAC

Actor, Composer, Lyricist

I’m an actor/composer/lyricist with many current projects. I recently secured the rights to a well-known comedy web series about video gamers to adapt into a musical and will be developing that throughout the year.

Existential Questions of the 21st Century, an absurd musical about an “end of the world” celebration called “ExistenceCon,” is also in development. Existential Questions was performed in concert at Green Room 42 in the spring of 2019, and was a semi-finalist for the Eugene O’Neill Musical Theatre Conference in 2018. Updates can be found on our Facebook page.

I’m also working on a musical adaptation of William R. Eakin’s Redgunk Tales, an anthology of short stories where southern culture meets science fiction meets philosophy. “The Personals,” based on Eakin’s story “Plain Female Seeks Nice Guy,” was written as a ten-minute musical at the end of my first year at the BMI Lehman Engel Musical Theatre Workshop, which can be found on YouTube.
