THE HEARTBREAK HOTEL in Concert Comes to The Parkside Lounge

Having successful presentations at The Tank and The Gallery Players, Rebecca Lee Lerman (Book, Music and Lyrics) and Matt Park (Orchestration) will present THE HEARTBREAK HOTEL, a new rock musical IN CONCERT @ The Parkside Lounge
Friday, August 2nd at 9pm

Comatose, A Girl dreams. Her body has become a place. Her mind moves through different parts of her body; different rooms of her trauma. She is trying to find connection in a disconnected, digital world. But some rooms are flooding and others have a Devil like figure waiting in the corner. Sometimes, she turns into a Goth Glam Rock star and finds herself performing in a Concert Hall. Who is the Game Show Host? The exit keeps taking her back to a therapist machine. She is trying to pull herself out of sleeping. How do you exit, The Heartbreak Hotel?

Performing songs from the musical, the Broadway Caliber cast includes: Alex Chester (How the Grinch Stole Christmas), Rebecca Lee Lerman (Priscilla Queen of the Desert), Padraic Murphy, Uton Onyejekwe (tick, Tick...BOOM), Matt Park (Peer Gynt and the Norwegian Hapa Band) and Ben Quinn
