Brent Lang Executive Editor Producers Ken Davenport and Primary Wave Music are developing “The Ten,” a new musical project that will feature music and lyrics by the Grammy Award-nominated team Future Cut (Tunde Babalola and Darren Lewis), and Emily Phillips. The show will draw on a wide range of musical influences including hip-hop, bluegrass, R&B, soul, and the blues. It will feature a book by Nambi E. Kelley and will be directed by Tony Award-winner Ruben Santiago-Hudson. Sandi Moranwill also serve as producer on “The Ten.” A reading is planned for early 2023. In a statement, Santiago-Hudson said the show is “…loosely based on the story of Moses and The Ten Commandments [and] set in our current times.” He went on to predict that the finished product “…will wonderfully alter what our ideas of what a modern musical can be. So be prepared for a thrilling ride.”
