Lisa performs in a new show this summer!

That's right - I'm going to be in a new show called THE NEXT BIG THING starting on Friday, July 19th. My friend, Jeff Favre wrote the book for the garage rock musical, and Missy Gibson and Mike Flanagan of the Indie band Breech wrote the music and lyrics.

THE NEXT BIG THING is about a garage band in 1983 that's looking to find a sound that will take them to the next level, so the songs performed by the band are straight 80's retro pop, while the rest of the songs reflect Breech's edgy style. This definitely isn't the SOUND OF MUSIC, my friends.

In the spirit of total transparency, I have to tell you that when I say I'm "in" it, what I mean is that I'm going to perform on Friday nights only, and by "perform" I mean I'm going to say one paragraph at the very end of the show. The thing is - this is a musical. And I can't sing. The great tragedy of my life. But the show is great, and I wanted to be part of it, and so this is what I'm doing.

THE NEXT GREAT THING runs 5 weeks, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, from July 19th through August 16th, with one matinee at 3pm on Sunday, July 20th. (there are also a couple of previews)
