Art Lab (Meg Fofonoff, Executive Prod; Megan Chacalos, Associate Producer) will present a private industry reading of SILK, a new musical created by Meg Fofonoff with a Book and additional lyrics by Eric Holmes and Music and Lyrics by Chilina Kennedy and Daniel Edmonds on Fri Dec 15 in New York City. In "Silk," Denise, a young woman from the country attempts to survive in Paris at the turn of the centuryand comes head-to-head with the owner of the world’s first department store, Mouret. A precursor to Zuckerberg, Musk and Gates, Octave Mouret revolutionizes the world and its relationship to shopping, but then Denise revolutionizes Mouret. As all of Paris loses their mind over the most decadent fabrics for the least amount of money, sexual politics collide with capitalism. Chilina Kennedy will also direct the reading that will feature Myha’la Herrold, Julian Ovenden, Jackie Burns, Eddie Cooper, Aisha Jackson, Kevin Cahoon, James Harkness, Hailee Kaleem Wright, Jessica Keenan Wynn, Jennifer Fouche, Josh Jordan, Nasia Thomas, Bridget Beirne, Zoe Jensen,  Megam Masako Haley, Jimmy Brewer, Caleb Mathura, Pascal Pastrana, Nico Oliveri & Jayden Theophile.
