First Date (written by Austin Winsberg, with music and lyrics by Alan Zachary and Michael Weiner) is a comedy about two mismatched singles set up on a blind date by friends and family. Aaron is a Jewish banker looking for a relationship. Casey is an atheist who works at an art gallery and constantly pursues dead-end relationships. Through the influences of their family and friends (who appear in their imaginations throughout the date), as well as the effects social media, the date appears hilariously doomed, but perhaps there is hope after all.
