Pasek & Paul were authentic and real throughout the whole process and that made a huge difference from other content I've seen anywhere. I learned so much from seeing their genuine process shown vulnerably in front of me. I truly will never be the same in my songwriting and confidence. The lessons were clear, direct, and authentic.
This was just mind-blowing. I knew Justin and Benj were an incredible duo, but this reaffirmed my belief to even higher levels. Knocked my socks off!
It was amazing to be in the writers' room with Benj and Justin. They didn't just lecture us. They really let us peek behind the curtain and watch their process — and throughout, they clued us in on both the magic and the "mechanics" of what they were doing.
I was blown away by the music theory video that made more sense to me than anything I've ever studied about theory. I loved watching Pasek and Paul create a musical, and I appreciated how charming and articulate they were. Mostly, I loved learning so much about structuring a musical.
The instructors were flat-out great. Their info was immediately useful to me. Their presentation had a good deal of technical or how-to info, which is just what I wanted, and their delivery was really special: they conveyed a sense of spontaneity and even joy.
I've been involved with musical theatre most of my life, but loved being taught more about the structure and content of musicals. It helped me make sense of what I've loved and even created for decades. I loved learning from these master creators.
Loved watching Benj and Justin work through their own story and songs. They were amazing how they described everything and it was just soooo useful for my own work and really looking at my characters and their journey.
I got so many insights watching Pasek & Paul actually create a show from scratch. They are amazing.
The workshop session with Joshua Henry was out of this world! Getting to be a fly on the wall while they were sharing their genuine creative process was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
I loved getting a glimpse into the process of two talented creatives who I greatly admire.
Thanks for the great experience! The video really made me feel like I was part of the process!
The depth and insight Pasek and Pauls' processes brought to my work was amazing.
