54 - The Musical tells the story
of two couples navigating their
way through drug use, addic-
tion, sexual liberty, interracial
relationships, changing musical
paradigms and love – at all costs.
The music, while familiar to fans
of disco and funk has been re-
purposed to serve as both back-
drop and storyteller.
The event will feature musical
selections from the show as per-
formed by Broadway veterans,
a Drag Queen, dancers, and a
live band. Allen has staged ver-
NJ STAGE 2017 - Vol. 4 No. 7
sions of the new play to enthusi-
astic audiences throughout New
York City at venues such as The
Cutting Room and it was also
awarded the featured spot in
Emerging Artists Theater’s New
Work Series. Most recently an
immersive truncated version of
the show was performed in As-
bury Park at The House of Inde-
pendents.
This performance will kick off
an exciting non-profit arts initia-
tive to support the development
of the theater arts in Asbury Park
