OSTC's Piano Bar Series Continues with 'Music from Stage and Scream' Tonight

Ocean State Theatre Company (OSTC), currently celebrating its third season in its state-of-the-art theatre in Warwick, is proud to announce the continuation of their post-performance Piano Bar Series. "Music From Stage and Scream" will be held following select Friday and Saturday evening performances of the company's current production, Dial M for Murder.

"I'm very excited about this particular Piano Bar," said Amiee Turner, Producing Artistic Director of Ocean State Theatre Company. "Since Dial M for Murder is a non-musical, it will be interesting to see who participates from the cast. All of the performers, with the exception of one, are making their OSTC debuts with this production, so I only 'know' them as actors - not singers - but, one is a skilled guitarist, one is an accomplished vocalist and the other two have music in their background. I also love it when our technical and administrative staffs get involved, which happens more frequently when we're producing a non-musical. I really can't wait!"

Following select Friday and Saturday evening performances, the theatre's lobby will be transformed into an intimate performance space, at which patrons will be entertained by cast members, OSTC alumni, and staff members, while enjoying beverages and snacks, which will be available for purchase from the theatre's lobby bar.

"Music From Stage and Scream" will be hosted by Mike Daniels, who audiences will remember from his portrayal of Snetsky in OSTC's Inaugural Season production of Fools, as well as his appearances in Children's Festival productions of How I Became a Pirate, The Fabulous Fable Factory, and Schoolhouse Rock Live! Musical accompaniment will be provided by Esther Zabinski, who music directed OSTC's season opener, My Fair Lady,.

"Music From Stage and Scream" will be presented following Friday and Saturday evening performances of Dial M for Murder tonight, November 7 and November 8, 14 and 15. Attendance at the performance preceding the piano bar is not required. The lobby doors will open for the piano bar at 9:30 pm. The theatre is located at 1245 Jefferson Boulevard, Warwick, RI. Admission is free, but seating is limited, so reservations are strongly recommended and can be made by calling (401) 921-6800.
