The concept album of the new musical fairy tale The Tower
Of Babel is currently available for digital download at Amazon.com with further

& Maxim Radio Sirius Host Diana Falzone, who will be performing her 14-song
show entitled Love Story at The Metropolitan Room on Saturday, December
29th at 5pm. Love Story is a collection of songs that speak about
falling in and out of love. It is a classic tale with some happy surprises
along the way. The show will make you smile, laugh, cry, and smile again. Diana
is currently featured in the December issue of Maxim Magazine at newsstands
now.
The Tower Of Babel features a book and score by Jonathan David Sloate.
The musical is described as such: "To save their kingdom
of Shinar, Queen Bathsheba implores
her daughter, the virtuous Princess Alana, to take a love potion and marry the
playboy Prince Canaan of Babylon
even though he may have murdered her father, but Prince Tiras, his jealous
brother who lusts for power and recognition, may
incite the ultimate apocalypse. The twin brothers vie not only for the princess
they both desire but also the right to be King of Babylon. Longing for true
love, Alana puts her over-zealous husband through a continually heightening
trial of tests. Recklessly seeking to uncover the real intentions of his
unrelenting advances, she mistakenly traps herself in a fight for her own life.
To avenge her husband's murder, Bathsheba attempts to poison one of the twin
princes, but King Nebuchadnezzar accidentally consumes the aging potion
instead. In a race to save his own father's life, Tiras may provoke the wrath
of God when he tries to build the Tower
of Babylon high enough to
reach the Gates of Heaven."
