Burton Leavitt Theatre, 779 Main Street, Willimantic, CT
We are excited to be producing this original musical comedy by Connecticut writer Roy O’Neil. The show is set in Waterbury Connecticut. It is the story of Eddie and his band, a one hit wonder from the 1960s, who 30 years later try to save the Palace Theater where the band got both its start and its name. It’s a roller coaster ride of emotional moments with endearing songs to make you sing and dance, and a crew of corrupt politicians who will make you laugh till you cry.
