Mitski is writing the music for stage production of The Queen's Gambit
Mitski has announced that she will write the music and lyrics for a forthcoming musical stage production of The Queen’s Gambit.
The 1983 Walter Tevis novel regained popularity in 2020 by being adapted into a popular Netflix show. Eboni Booth will write the book and Whitney White will direct the forthcoming stage production, in which Mitski will curate the music.
"Before [producers] Level Forward even brought the idea of making a musical of The Queen’s Gambit, I was a fan of the Netflix show, and an even greater fan of the original novel. So I was already determined to be a member of this team. And then I met Eboni and Whitney, and my determination grew tenfold! I absolutely had to be a part of this! I am ecstatic to get to work with all of these amazing creatives, who’ve each built beautiful and unique repertoires of their own," Mitski says.
