Meghan Brown's THE FIRE ROOM Opens Tonight at The Barn Acting Studio

"The Fire Room", by Meghan Brown, is set in a surreal afterlife that shifts between a 1920s speakeasy and a shoddy modern Van Nuys apartment. J.W. and Meredith are two ghosts who have managed to find true love, however, when Meredith's earthly ex-lover arrives on the scene he revives the darkness she has so desperately fought.

Cherry Poppins Productions and NJAProductions are proud toteam up and share this story worth telling. Cherry Poppin's Productions' mission is "to breathe life and excitement into the Los Angeles theatre scene by providing an immersive experience that entertains, delights, and allows an audience a much needed, quality escape. Performing contemporary musicals and plays by both new and established writers, Cherry Poppins Productions strives to focus on stories that are relevant, relatable and accessible to the here and now." Meghan Brown's raw portrayal of the human experience within "The Fire Room" provides just such an opportunity.

Brown manages to expose the delicate balance within love: grandiose and heroic while dirty, sharp and painful. This universally recognized juxtaposition is revealed not with a heavy hand, but with a "poetic and sensuous" nature, thoughtfully commenting on our own individual inescapable shared experiences (Huffington Post). Brown's quirky after-life furnishes the perfect stage for an audience to play in; to recall and relate our own lives to the great spectrum of sex, death, and love.
