Performances of A Commercial Jingle for Regina Comet begin next Friday, September 17th, at the DR2 Theatre (103 E. 15th Street), ahead of an opening night on Monday, September 27th.
The show is the first completely new musical to premiere at an off-Broadway venue since the shutdown began.
Two nobodies dream of writing one hit song for everybody, but their day job composing jingles for commercials isn't the big break they hoped. That is, until they're plucked from obscurity by a world-famous pop star named Regina Comet (if destiny had a child, it would be her) and she wants them to create an anthem for her supernova pipes... and her new perfume. They're so close to the big-time they can smell it, but following your passion doesn't always lead where you expect. Making a hit song can be a shit-show.
