SHOOTING STAR: A ROCK & ROLL JOURNEY THROUGH CANCER, written and directed by Joe Salazar, will play a limited engagement at The Actors Company. Check out photos of the show.
The new play with music follows a railroad worker diagnosed with cancer as he, his wife, and his best friend confront the fight ahead with grit, humor, and a soundtrack of classic rock & roll. The production combines live music and storytelling, exploring themes of resilience, friendship, love, and loss while celebrating the role music can play during life’s most difficult moments.
Described as “like a concert with a story,” the show aims to balance humor and heart in a narrative that centers on community and perseverance.
