"...What if you were asked to write a musical sketch in 48 hours? This would have a subject, be about 20 minutes and have to include a story that fit the music! Seems impossible. Well for most of us, that would be true, it would be improbable and for most impossible. But, The Music Theatre Company in Highland Park has the right people to create such a playlet. In fact, in their encore of “The 48-hour Musical, with four sparkling little 20 minute musicals that were created, rehearsed and performed in a matter of 48 hours, now on their stage in Highland Park with an additional musical written by Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins) what you will experience is a special evening of theater."
