COMING OUT: THE MUSICAL Selected For Spotlight New Works Fest
Allison St. Rock's queer musical dramedy will be presented by CPA Theatricals and Gitelman & Good with free tickets.
Coming Out, the Musical, with book, music, and lyrics by Allison St. Rock, was selected as part of CPA Theatricals and Gitelman & Good's Spotlight New Works Fest this July.
Coming Out is a heartwarming, queer musical dramedy based on a true story; it's Fun Home meets The Prom meets Dear Evan Hansen. A web of college students each have their gay awakening, some falling in love, others navigating secrets, lies, and ignorance as they come out of the closet.
Performances will take place on Friday, July 3rd at 4:30pm and Sunday, July 5th at 1:30pm. The tickets are free, but reservations are needed. Tickets can be reserved at the Spotlight New Works Fest's website.
