The musical’s director, Eli Golden, told Buzzfeed that he was inspired to write the show while watching reruns of the NBC sitcom. “Friends is that show I watch every night before I go to bed, so naturally, it means a lot to me,” he said. “I am a huge lover of musicals and really wanted to tell a great story while staying true to the source material. This is a musical for fans by the fans, both of Friends and musicals in general.”
