Intro GRUNGE A HELLA 90's ROCK MUSICAL ABOUT LETTING GO SCROLL Written by Leyna D'Ancona Music by Paul Martin Siegel Charley Django The 411 background image Grunge News NEWS GRUNGE, a musical play with an idiosyncratic approach, finds its way back to stage.
During the pandemic of 2020, the public presentation was shut down and the script
adapted as a first of its kind multi-actor, musical audio drama with concept album. Sound
design by 5 time Emmy Award winner Dave Smith of Audio Alchemy. Original cast
performances include Marc Von Em (Rob Thomas), John Brodeur (Birdstreets), Nakia
(The Voice), John Carlin (Turn Me Loose), Ashley Monique Menard (The Art of Blowing It),
Bettina Skye (Limitless) and many other great talents. Pandemic be damned.
We are thrilled to introduce this original work to you. Peace out. About the Show About the Story It's the 1990's and Charley, a broody working-class guy and gifted frontman of an up-and-coming alternative rock band, discovers a note that sends him on a quest to find the father who abandoned him. Unaware of the burgeoning digital revolution that will change the music industry forever, the band gets its first big break. Facing loss in times of great change, courage and confidence are elusive, opportunities for independent artists are fleeting. Should he move on or wait for his time to come around? Bringing back wack slacks and fuzz, this is a generation-gone-by story about a fatherless son, the brotherhood of a band and what it means to let go.
