This show has been a labor of love and I am profoundly grateful to Azudi, our creative team, and the crew for helping to bring my vision to life."

The musical explores Oscar's life in his words while showcasing over 30 of his greatest songs from shows like The Sound of Music, Show Boat, Oklahoma!, Carousel, South Pacific, Allegro and more. Working closely with Oscar Hammerstein's grandson Will, the musical incorporates personal correspondence, unpublished lyrics, interviews and rare memoirs togive insight into Hammerstein's legacy."

Previously staged at its Philadelphia premiere at The Bristol Riverside Theatre, the production also utilizes state-of-the-art 3D holographic technology, created through a specialized projection system, marking the first time this holographic technology is being implemented Off-Broadway.

Sincerely, Oscar is produced off-Broadway by David Pedemonti.
