SCHOOL FOR LOVE Premieres at the Hollywood Fringe

2018 Hollywood Fringe Best Musical Nominee and 2021 Best Cabaret Nominee, Pamela Eberhardt, has arranged another musical experience for fringe audiences. In her cabaret, School for Love, a professor is going through a nasty divorce as three of her students find themselves in a love triangle. The cabaret is told solely by music from such artists as Lizzo, Frank Sinatra, Britney Spears, Taylor Swift as well as many musical theatre composers. School for Love is directed by J. Bailey Burcham. The show opens June 3rd 2023 and runs through June 23rd, 2023 at The Three Clubs (1123 Vine Street) in Hollywood.

About the Show

Sydnee has been a teacher at the School for Love for 10 years. She's going through a nasty divorce and finds it tough to teach about love while her own love life is up in the air. Parissa has spent her entire time at School for Love cultivating brains, beauty and popularity. She's bored by the boys at School for Love and is only focused on being a school celebrity. Lucas is a good guy with a good heart who finds himself enamored with one of his classmates. Her rejections don't phase him as he continues to strongly believe they belong together. Pam attends School for Love reluctantly. While most definitely an outcast, she's skilled at seeing special things in special people. Hank is a music teacher at the school and has had his eye on Sydnee for some time. Out of respect to her marriage, he's kept his distance and tries to be a friend. Will these students and teachers find their soulmates at the School For Love? Songs from Dear Evan Hansen, The Wild Party, Lizzo, Britney Spears and many more round out this hilarious and touching cabaret.

"One of the great joys in life is creating iTunes or Spotify playlists.' says Eberhardt. "I always think to myself, when putting a list together, how a collection of songs separate from their source musical or album can still tell an interesting and different story."
