STEEL GIG "LOST HIGWAY" BLOWING ROCK, NC Please Cl

Post by Mark van Allen »

A good friend of mine is on the direction crew for "Lost Highway", the Hank Williams story, at Blowing Rock Stage Company at the Mariam & Robert Hayes Performing Arts Center just off US 321 in Blowing Rock, North Carolina. Rehearsals have already started, but they're looking for a steel player who could come in this weekend, show opens August 21st and
closes Sept 6th, with a possibility of a one-week extension. I'd be doing this one for sure if Blueground wasn't booked so much.
I don't know anything about pay, but it should be a LOT of fun and a great crew to work with. You can contact music director H. Drew Perkins at 804-938-7935 (Drew's cell). More info about the show and theatre here: http://www.blowingrockstage.com/
