The Golden Boy of the Blue Ridge cast recording was first released in 2010 following a celebrated run Off-Broadway at 59E59 Theaters after being developed by Prospect Theater Company. With an original score by Peter Mills, Golden Boy of the Blue Ridge is a pitch-dark comedy with the kick of moonshine. The Show transplants J.M. Synge's classic The Playboy of the Western World to 1930s Appalachia. Bluegrass music and backwoods mayhem abound in this coming-of-age story about a slapdash murder, a whirlwind romance, and a most unlikely hero. The album is produced by Dennis Michael Keefe, and cast features Melody Allegra Berger, Matthew Duré, Jeff Edgerton, Carol Hickey, Victoria Huston-Elem, Dennis Michael Keefe, Mark Mozingo, Mike Rosengarten, Dan Sharkey, and Scott Wakefield.
