(Dear regular readers, please forgive/indulge me this off-topic post. This site/blog is the best that I can do to detail this important announcement.....)

The Play

Not exactly a musical, “Alrite!” is a Two-Act play about a group of former professional musicians who've lost their “day jobs” and have ended up back in their hometown, to find that their old band leader is still performing around town. “Alrite!” will feature nine original songs, instrumentally/vocally performed by the actors themselves. There are also a few non-musician roles involved.
