The Extraordinary Ordinary features book and lyrics by Scott Burkell and music by Paul Loesel. The musical, according to press notes, "follows a year in the life of six friends: Karen, Sam, Kate, Joey, Bev, and Zach. Unique individuals all struggling in some way to find contentment, love, and joy in their day-to-day lives. More than anything, it's a musical about everyday people and their ordinary lives. It reminds us that life is happening all around us every minute of every day, and we are given the choice – the Opportunity! – to allow our lives to dwindle away, or to live fully and deeply and make every moment extraordinary."
