SHOOTING STAR Musical Releases New COVID-19 Relief Fundraising Medley
SHOOTING STAR - A Revealing New Musical has partnered with Broadway Cares / Equity Fights AIDS and Pineapple Support to release a music video featuring performers from the new musical's NYC workshops and Los Angeles production, along with cameos from stars of "RuPaul's Drag Race" and the adult film industry.
All of them have come together to showcase moments from SHOOTING STAR while aiming to raise much-needed funds to support performers - of all kinds - affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Based on a concept by Florian Klein, SHOOTING STAR features a book by Klein, music by Thomas Zaufke, and lyrics by Erik Ransom. A musical love story set in the world of the gay adult film industry, SHOOTING STAR, is the semi-autobiographical tale of porn star Hans Berlin, and offers a sincere look at the human side of this fascinating but taboo industry.
SHOOTING STAR was nominated for two Ovation Awards by the LA Stage Alliance, and received a BroadwayWorld Los Angeles Best Musical nomination. The new musical is currently in development for productions in Chicago and New York (Off-Broadway) with details to come.
