The theatrical cabaret, Dreaming Of Thunder Road: The Songs Of Bruce Springsteen & Roy Orbison, plays on Thursday, August 15 at 7 PM at Don’t Tell Mama. Vocalist, actress and MC, Rachel Murdy sets the stage, alongside her musical partners Matthew Milligan on guitar, Peter Szep on piano and fellow performers Berit Johnson, Sarah Jordan Hupper, Joey Slater and Kim Ima.
Imagine: the screen door slams, Mary’s dress sways. Like a vision, she dances across the porch as the radio plays Roy Orbison singing for the lonely. Thirty years later Bruce Springsteen’s rock n’ roll anthem “Thunder Road” awakens the dream of taking the road to places unknown. Does Mary accept the invitation to ride in the passenger seat out on Thunder Road or does she stay on the porch listening to the ecstatic heartbreak of Roy Orbison’s music?
Dreaming of Thunder Road: Songs of Bruce Springsteen and Roy Orbison features both platinum popular and quiet deep cuts from Springsteen and Orbison’s work. It presents the songs as you’ve never seen or heard them before.
$20.00 Cover Charge and a $20 Minimum (must include 2 drinks) per person $10.00 Cover Charge per person for MAC Members. Reserve here.
