The project is at an early stage of development. It is being produced by Catherine Schreiber, a winner of the prestigious Tony theater award. The creative team is currently holding auditions, but the premiere date has not yet been announced.
The authors plan to focus on Winehouse’s musical legacy and her best-known compositions, rather than solely on the difficult events in the singer’s personal life.

The musical was announced against the backdrop of the 20th anniversary of the album "Back to Black," which brought Winehouse worldwide fame.
