β€’ Long Valley Playwright, 20, To Return To NYC Stage (patch.com) β€” A 20-year-old Long Valley playwright and West Morris Central graduate is bringing her second original musical, β€œInDIGO,” to New York City’s Green Room 42 on Dec. 28. Ella Villani’s new show, described as her β€œhate-letter to generative AI,” features her own compositions, a largely college-age cast, and themes of healing and creative independence that she hopes will inspire more women and non-binary composers.
