THE ONLY WAY OUT
Book, Music and Lyrics by Déa Thatcher
Based on the true events and the works of George Thatcher
Inspired by the life and works of George Thatcher, The Only Way Out tells a riveting tale of survival, family, and ultimately freedom. Thatcher was wrongfully convicted and sentenced to death in England in 1963, and subsequently served 18 years of a life sentence before being released. The Only Way Out is written by Thatcher’s granddaughter.

90 SECONDS
Book, Music, & Lyrics by Einstina Sneha & Obe Vermeulen
The original musical follows 15-year-old Aanya, whose life is upended by the 2001 Gujarat earthquake on Republic Day, which claims her father in just 90 seconds. Amid the chaos, she connects with a homeless man, and a South Indian couple finds renewed love while navigating the aftermath. Through shared experiences of survival and rebuilding, these seemingly separate lives intertwine.
