The Green Room - the College Musical is set to open this Friday at the California Stage in Sacramento. 

Starring Courtney Parks, Jacob Montoya, Jessica Goldman & Lafras le Roux, this edgy and funny musical is sure to entertain Sacramento audiences.  The Green Room was presented for a short run in Hermosa Beach in May to audience acclaim and great reviews. 

Director Kevin Caravalho has brought some interesting elements to the production that incorporate video and photography to assist in telling the story of Divonne, Cliff, Anna & John as they live through their years in college and try to fulfill their apirations of going to Broadway. 

The music & lyrics by Chuck Pelletier span a wide range of musical styles and are quite unique and entertaining.  Comedian C. Stephen Foster is responsible for many of the comic elements in the script.  Chuck and Stephen will be attending the performance on August 8th and engage in a Q & A session with the audience following the performance. 

Friends of Dorothy Productions have been working on presenting the Northern California premier of The Green Room - the College Musical in Sacramento since January of this year.  They are excited to see all of the hard work by everyone involved come to fruition and to see the production take the stage. 

The Green Room - the College Musical opens at The California Stage (formerly known as The Space) on August 7th & runs through August 29th. Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00 pm; Thursdays August 20th & 27th at 8:00 pm and Saturday August 22nd at both 8:00 pm and midnight.

Everyone in the cast except Courtney Parks did a great job of trying to save an interminably bad script. Courtney's stage presence was awkward and, though seemingly within the same age range as the rest of the cast, she came off as being at least a decade older--and not in a good way.

It's sad to watch such wonderful talent get stuck with such horrible lines. I look forward to seeing them (except for Courtney) in other shows that give them material that can actually be worked with.
