The Florida Festival of New Musicals: Act II will present a full professional reading of an entire new musical previously featured in one of the Florida Festival of New Musicals. Selected musicals will be patron favorites that could potentially be produced on the Playhouse Mainstage.

The first musical to be featured in The Florida Festival of New Musicals: Act II will be Flaming Volcano Bed and Breakfast written and composed by Playhouse multi-instrumentalist and well known regional talent Mr. Ned Wilkinson. It was a part of the 2019 festival and the original professional cast will reunite for this full reading.

Flaming Volcano Bed and Breakfast highlights the story of Karen who quits her mundane administrative job to open a Bed and Breakfast. As guests arrive for their first night, odd occurrences and a magical cocktail force the group of travelers and the proprietor together, revealing details about their lives. Ultimately this challenges everyone to gain personal clarity and find their individual power.
