Squigs Makes Beautiful Music with Once Stars Steve Kazee & Cristin Milioti

Broadway stars Steve Kazee and Cristin Milioti are capturing the quiet romance of indie film Once on the Broadway stage, and Broadway.com’s resident artist Justin “Squigs” Robertson headed to the Jacobs Theatre to translate that same bittersweet sentiment into ink. Guy (Kazee) is an Irish singer-songwriter who is ready to give up on his music. Girl (Milioti) is a wide-eyed, waify Czech pianist who refuses to let him abandon his musical dreams. The show begin a collaboration in a Dublin music shop that will lead to friendship and maybe more. Check out Squigs' portrayal of this poignant love story, then see—and hear—it unfold on the Broadway stage.
