New Pop/Rock Musical Comedy #LOVESTORY Set for FringeNYC, Now thru 8/28

#LoveStory, a new pop/rock musical comedy, will be presented as part of the 2015 New York International Fringe Festival tonight, August 14, 19, 20, 26, and 28. All performances will be held at Theatre 80 (Venue #9, @ 80 St. Marks Place), and this full production marks the premiere of #LoveStory on the New York City stage.

#LoveStory tells the tale of one hopelessy romantic 20-something as she ventures through a 21st-century maze of hookup culture, online dating, social media, expertise her not-so-single friends offer, and the discovery of her own true desires. Featuring an original score by Mark Oleszko and Bethany Mayes, and book by Bethany Mayes, Sophie Frankle, and Mark Oleszko, the creative team for #LoveStory also includes lighting designer Sam Ticker, sound designer Denis Adan Zepeda, choreographer Talia Dooz, music director Matthew Bennis, and stage managers Emma Ramsay-Saxon and Abby Levi.

#LoveStory is directed by Todd Ritch, who along with Assistant Director Danielle Zweibon, helms a talented cast of 12 which features Tara Llewellyn, Danielle Dorfman, Clark Baxtresser, Lana Gallo, Carter Easler, Eddie Maldonado, Daniel C. Jackson, Al Roths, Christopher Valentine, Melanie Burg, Tessa Hope Slovis, and Drew Lowther.
