LOS ANGELES, CA — November 11, 2026 — S&L Productions presents Ordinary Days, the acclaimed chamber musical with music and lyrics by Adam Gwon, directed by Liv Westhoff, at The Hobgoblin Playhouse (1516 N. Gardner St., Hollywood) from November 12 through 15, 2026. The production includes two virtual performances for audiences watching from home.

Ordinary Days tells the story of four young New Yorkers whose lives intersect as they each navigate chasing their big dreams while living in an even bigger city. Through intimate storytelling, this musical shares the importance of slowing down to take in the beauty that is around us in everyday ordinary life.

Ordinary Days is the second production from S&L Productions, the company founded by producers Scout Mayberry (the “S”) and Libby Casey (the “L”). After their first show, Trail to Oregon, the Team Star Kid parody of the classic video game, the pair chose a more sentimental musical that reflects on relationships, friendships, the longing for the place you call home, and taking time to appreciate life.

The production’s backstory echoes the show itself. “Much like the characters and events in Ordinary Days, the show’s cast, crew and producers all have connections that have brought them together as friends who appreciate art,” say Mayberry and Casey. Most of the company came out of the Missouri State University Theatre Department right after COVID and landed in Los Angeles, New York and Kansas City, where they work two or three day jobs but reconnect for the art of theatre. Mayberry and Casey bring together resources and talent from across the country to make it happen.

As for what audiences should take away, the producers hope people leave recognizing themselves in the everyday moments onstage. “We believe people will relate to what they hear from the characters who are new, but yet familiar, to each other and to coincidences and connections.”
