New Musical THE ACCIDENTAL CLUB Explores Accidental Overdose

Female singing legends, who died from accidental overdose, share their secrets and insights about fame, addiction, life and death from the other side in the dynamic new musical The Accidental Club. The show is a reminder of the impact of the accidental overdose epidemic currently plaguing America. Written and performed by Sherrie Scott, the new musical has been in development by Awareness Media for the past three years. Workshop presentations will take place on January 31st and February 1st, 2018 at 7pm at The Cell.

The musical follows Mira Dawson, a washed-up rockstar, who dies of an accidental overdose and finds herself in "The Accidental Club" with Amy Winehouse, Janis Joplin, Billie Holiday and other iconic members. Believing that it is just a dream, she wins the title of "Angel of the Month" and gets the opportunity to come back to Earth for one last concert for her faithful fans. While swapping secrets and songs, discoveries are made and truths are revealed as the clock ticks toward midnight, and she's still not waking up. Will she? Will we? The presentation runs 75 minutes and is be directed by Joe Barros (Bastard Jones, Cagney), with music direction by Max Gordon (The Band's Visit, The Goree All-Girl String Band), and the stage manager is Michelle Perri.

The Cell is located at 338 West 23rd Street in New York City. Seating for the free presentations is extremely limited. To RSVP: www.TheAccidentalClub.com.
