AboutWhat path would you choose? The dreamer or the realist? The cool or the geek? Two former roommates try to answer that question themselves when their paths collide after college. Jake is still chasing the elusive rock star dream. MC is the lonely owner of a successful night club. MC has always had a thing for Jake's girlfriend, Lily. Could tonight be the night he finally has a chance? It's a story fit for an opera, told against the backdrop of a battle of the bands competition, and featuring a straight-up rock score based on the music of actual opera arias.
>This is a fully staged workshop with a live band and a talk back session. A "workshop" is when a new play progresses from its first revisions after a "reading". The workshop includes opportunity for audience members to complete a response form after the show, to help the writers refine the play and prepare it for final copy. Schedule
