What: Unconditional, A Musical Memoir

             New York, NY

When: This show ran from October 15 through October 25, 2026

Unconditional: A  Musical Memoir is Margot Rose's personal story, which she wrote, co-composed and performs. It is about the joy of having and raising a family even if you have to go to extraordinary lengths to make that happen.  It is also about unimaginable loss and unbearable grief and how to keep going when the bottom falls out of your world. 

The narrative is shared through a combination of storytelling and song. Ms. Rose is accompanied only by a small band and a young woman, Melina Young, who embodies her late daughter. Ms. Young imbues her performance with a lovely sweetness in voice and demeanor. The pair's duets are beautiful but also a poignant reminder of Ms. Rose's loss.  Her ability to step out on the stage and share her heartbreak every night is both an act of courage and a loving tribute to her late daughter. 

And that's our view. For more about the show, visit unconditionalmusical.com.
