New York Times 8/16/12: Marina Keegan’s ‘Independents’ at the Fringe. IN late May, a week after she graduated from Yale University, 22-year-old Marina Keegan headed to her family’s summer cottage on Cape Cod to begin revisions of “Independents,” a musical whose book she had written the summer before. The plan was for her to be joined there by the show’s director, lyricist and composer, but she never made it; the car in which she was riding crashed, killing her. Last weekend, “Independents” opened at the New York International Fringe Festival with Ms. Keegan’s parents, other family members and many of her friends from Yale in attendance.
