TheatreWorks Silicon Valley presents the World Premiere musical 5 & Dime. Based on the play and film Come Back to the 5 & Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean by Ed Graczyk, this rockin’ country musical is centered on the 20th anniversary reunion of a small-town James Dean fan club. As a group of the women catch up and reminisce about the thrilling period when the Rebel Without a Cause actor filmed the movie Giant nearby, a stranger arrives to settle old scores. A favorite in TheatreWorks’ 2024 New Works Festival, 5 & Dime features music by Dan Gillespie Sells (Brokeback Mountain, Everybody's Talking About Jamie) and book by Ashley Robinson (Brokeback Mountain, Fall of '94). Actor/activist Shakina (NBC’s “Connecting,” NBC’s “Quantum Leap,” Hulu’s “Difficult People”) writes lyrics and stars as Joanne in this new musical, helmed by TheatreWorks Artistic Director Giovanna Sardelli.
