Who is
Amanda Fagan?

20-year-old Amanda Fagan is a budding singer-songwriter and aspiring playwright. She has a passion for telling stories through music and has written songs inspired by a variety of fictional works, songs that have gained millions of listeners. Amanda is currently studying Theatre and English in college, but has maintained working on a variety of creative projects in the meantime.

 

Amanda is a self-proclaimed nerd. At age 16, during the 2020 pandemic lockdown, Amanda wrote a Marvel Tribute Musical about Iron Man; she wrote twenty-three songs in the span of two weeks. The musical follows the story of the Marvel Cinematic Universe from Tony Stark’s point of view, primarily focusing on the Avengers Movies. We watch as the arrogant, egotistical, playboy grows into the self-sacrificing hero, mentor, and father he is at the end of Avengers: Endgame.  Amanda dressed in costume, and entered the recording studio to record demos of the songs for her YouTube channel that summer. Stark! The Musical – A Tribute to the MCU caught the attention of the president of Amas Musical Theater in New York, Tegan Summer.  It also caught the attention of Broadway stars, as well as the Hulk himself, Mark Ruffalo, who tweeted about Fagan’s song, Forget About Us, a tear-jerking duet from the latter half of the musical. The musical is currently in the works and is being produced by Summer, who has since moved from New York to the West End of London, but continues to work with Amanda on bringing Stark! to the stage. 

 

In addition, Amanda has released a multitude of original songs that have gained millions of streams. Her debut song, Please Don’t Make Me Choose, has over seven million streams across streaming platforms. Amanda loves to write about personal experiences, as well as tell the stories of others, whether they are characters from works of fiction or people who inspired her. Not only does Amanda love to write, but she loves to read as well. Love, Jane, Amanda’s newest EP, is based on the works of Jane Austen and is reminiscent of the classical songs from the Regency era. Amanda loves to explore all genres of music, including  pop, rock, country, classical, jazz, electronic, acoustic, indie, not to mention musical theater.
