Opening The York Theatre Company's Spring 2025 New2NY Series is Platinum Dreams, with book by Stevie Holland, music by Gary William Friedman, lyrics by Will Holt and additional lyrics by Stevie Holland (adapted from Platinum by Will Holt and Bruce Vilanch and Sunset by Will Holt).

Set in 1977, with a score encompassing 70’s rock, 40’s big-band and a contemporary theatre sound, Platinum Dreams tells the story of Lila Halliday, a musical movie star of the 1940’s hoping to make a comeback by recording her first-ever solo album; Dan Hardin, a hot rock ‘n’ roll star looking to keep his relevance on the charts; and Jamie Stiles, a record producer/studio owner who is Dan’s former writing partner and former lover. The story is about how destiny brings together three disparate, talented people with their own agendas, and how they ultimately grow to accept each other and go on with their lives and fulfill their dreams. Platinum Dreams will be directed by York’s Interim Artistic Director Joseph Hayward, with music direction by David Klodowski.
