– You never know what life will bring. Only what we bring to life.

Delayed from its original August 2020 announced run, The Drama Workshop is beyond excited to finally bring the musical BRIGHT STAR to their stage.

Inspired by a true story and featuring the Tony®-nominated score by Steve Martin and Edie Brickell, Broadway’s BRIGHT STAR tells a sweeping tale of love and redemption set against the rich backdrop of the American South in the 1920s and ’40s.

When literary editor Alice Murphy meets a young soldier just home from World War II, he awakens her longing for the child she once lost. Haunted by their unique connection, Alice sets out on a journey to understand her past—and what she finds has the power to transform both of their lives. With beautiful melodies and powerfully moving characters, the story unfolds as a rich tapestry of deep emotion. An uplifting theatrical journey that holds you tightly in its grasp, BRIGHT STAR is as refreshingly genuine as it is daringly hopeful.

BRIGHT STAR IS directed and produced by Dennis Murphy, with music direction by Linda Abbott and choreographed by Denise Schnieders.

COME FROM AWAY Runs April 6-10

Broadway in Dayton
April 6-10
Schuster Center [Dayton]

COME FROM AWAY is based on the true story of when the community of Gander, Newfoundland played host to the world. What started as an average day in a small town turned into an international sleep-over when 38 planes, carrying thousands of people from across the globe, were diverted to Gander’s air strip on September 11, 2001. Undaunted by culture clashes and language barriers, the people of Gander cheered the stranded travelers with music, an open bar and the recognition that we’re all part of a global family.
