SUMMARY:"Bright Star" Community Theater Musical
DESCRIPTION:Black Hills State University Music Department and Matthews Opera House are partnering to present "Bright Star\," a bluegrass musical written and composed by Steve Martin and Edie Brickell. Performances will be February 21-22 at 7:30 pm with a matinee at 2:00 pm on Sunday\, February 23.\n\n\n\nThis special presentation is a collaborative effort between Matthews Opera House and BHSU Music Department\, with both organizations seeking to equip students with crucial educational skills and real-world experience as well as create a connected body of student and community performers\n\n\n\nPlot\n\nSet in the 1920's and 40's against the rich backdrop of the American South\, Bright Star is the story of Alice Murphy\, presented at two different points in her life. First\, as a carefree young girl hopelessly in love with the mayor's son and\, later\, as a successful magazine editor with a mysterious connection to a young man named Billy. As star-crossed teenagers\, Alice and small town heart-throb Jimmy Ray fell in love and their relationship resulted in a pregnancy that threatened the ambitions of Jimmy Ray's father. The couple's infant son was whisked away and a string of lies unraveled their happy ending before it could even begin. Years later\, now a successful literary editor\, Alice meets a promising young writer named Billy who awakens her longing for the son she lost. Alice sets out on a journey to understand her past and unlocks a secret that will change both of their lives forever. With beautiful melodies and powerfully moving characters\, Bright Star is an epic tale inspired by true events.
