About Hundred Days

Workshop Theatre proudly presents the SC premiere of HUNDRED DAYS. This fresh contemporary musical is an uncensored, exhilarating and
heartrending true story about embracing uncertainty, taking a leap and loving as if you only had 100 days to live. With magnetic chemistry
and anthemic folk-punk music, creators Abigail and Shaun Bengson explore a fundamental question: how do we make the most of the time that we have?

A New York Times Critics' Pick, HUNDRED DAYS was hailed as "a luminous musical memoir that celebrates and laments the elusive radiance of a shared life." New York Magazine called the show "a series of ecstatic songs that make the case for living and loving. Hundred Days shines a light in the darkness. There's something about that way of moving through the world-chest up, heart open, irony pushed firmly aside-that feels downright daring right now."

Under the Direction of Chad Henderson (2018 SC Theatre Association Founders Award Winner) and Music Director Tom Beard (Too Many Credits to List), the Workshop production of this multimedia musical features an amazing cast of Columbia musicians: Katie Leitner (Guitar/Synth/Vox) from local band Say Femme, Catherine Hunsinger (Cello/Vox) from local band Rex Darling, Taylor Diveley (Guitar/Vox) from recent productions Kinky Boots/ A Chorus Line, Kari Lebby (Bass/Vox) from local band sandcastles and Columbia percussionist Patty Boggs. If you're craving a truly exhilarating theatre event this season in Columbia, you don't want to miss HUNDRED DAYS.
