 | Dateline, Friday, Oct. 10th, 2008, Stamford, Connecticut: Finalists have been announced for the 2008 American Harmony Prize, a playwriting award sponsored by Stamford, Connecticut’s Curtain Call, Inc., to spotlight new musicals that explore our country’s many ethnic, religious and gender identifications. The second annual American Harmony Prize will showcase a new musical that dramatizes an aspect of the experience of Jewish Americans. “We received terrific submissions this year,” states award coordinator, William Squier. “The level of craft that went into writing the four finalist is uniformly high. And yet, they could be more different. I’m glad I don’t have to decide who wins!” The finalists include SUMMER OF MY GERMAN SOLDIER by David Brush & Jim Farley. The winner will be announced in December and will be performed in a concert reading in Curtain Call's Musical Monday's Series in February, 2009.
