'Rooms' Reading, with Kushnier and Diaz, Set for Oct. 25

A special reading presentation of Rooms, a rock romance, will take place at The Zipper Theatre on Wednesday, October 25th in anticipation of a 2007 New York run. With music and lyrics by Paul Scott Goodman, and book by Goodman and Miriam Gordon, the show is directed by Scott Schwartz.

Rooms "centers on songwriting partners Monica Miller and Ian Wallace, who meet in Glasgow, Scotland in 1977. Monica is a middle-class Jewish girl interested in the bright lights of Broadway while Ian is a working-class rock-and-roll Catholic boy. Their music takes them from Glasgow to London to New York. Though Monica longs to see every room in the world, Ian is happy with four walls, a window, his music and a scotch."

Rooms features Jeremy Kushnier (Ren in Footloose and Roger in Rent) and Natascia Diaz (Man of La Mancha, Seussical, Capeman).

The reading will play two performances only at The Zipper Theatre (336 West 37th Street) on Wednesday, October 25th at 3 PM and 7 PM
