Joseph Mulroy

Joseph Mulroy, composer/lyricist of the romantic comedy musical Born to Ride the
Waves (which receives its premiere production July 4-20, 2008 at Huntington
Beach Playhouse) is a graduate of USC’s Thornton School of Music and an alumnus
of the LA and NYC BMI/Lehman Engel Musical Theatre Workshops. He is the lyricist
and/or composer of four produced musicals, including Surfstory, which the LA Times called “fresh, inspired, fun, elegant, engaging, and blissfully unpretentious.” Born to
Ride the Waves, its successor, was a finalist for the Chicago Stages 2007 Festival. In addition to making music at Spirit of Life
Community Church since 1994, Mulroy has conducted pit orchestras for new and classic musicals, including the West Coast premiere of
Harnick/Raposo’s A Wonderful Life at Laguna Playhouse and Saddleback Civic Light Opera’s multi-award-winning production of Sweeney Todd.
A BMI affiliate and member of Dramatists Guild, he and his wife, multi-award-winning choreographer Marie de la Palme, live in Orange
County, California. They have two children.
