With worldwide distribution this musical will be in classrooms across the globe, teaching kids valuable life lessons through song and dance! In addition, you can find Ronvé at NYU Tisch School of the Arts this fall as an Artist-in-Residence, producing a full production of his original new musical, Once Upon a Rhyme (formally known as iLLA!
