After a two year wait BRIGHT STAR opens on the Hawks Mainstage in just one week! We sat down with Director Roxanne Wach to ask her about the show, what it's like being back in rehearsal and what audiences can expect from the show!
🎫: https://bit.ly/BrightStarOCP

Q. What is 'Bright Star' about?

RW. 'Bright Star' is set in the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina in the 1940s and 1920s. It’s based on playwright and composers, Steve Martin and Edie Brickell’s album, 'Love Has Come For You', and a bit of the legend of the Iron Mountain Baby. It follows Alice and Jimmy Ray, and also Billy and Margo… and their great stories. I don’t really want to give more away! There are such surprises in store for the audience.

Q. What has it been like being back in the rehearsal room for 'Bright Star'?

RW. It’s always exciting to be in the rehearsal room and watch the actors inhabit the characters and breathe life into a story. We all had so much invested in the production when it shut down in March of 2020. It’s wonderful to be back.

Q. What do you love most about this show?

RW. Collaborating with my music director, Jennifer Novak Haar, and choreographer, Julian Adair – and the exceptional staff at OCP. I have such a great time working together with everyone to make the show happen.

Q. What do you hope audiences will take away?

RW. To always hope, no matter what life throws at you.

Q. What should audiences expect from 'Bright Star'?

RW. It is a roller coaster ride! There's love, rebellion, tragedy, loss, hope, redemption... It's got everything, including a deeply talented cast and band. I know it will be a very entertaining evening for everyone!
