Dave is continuing
work on SWEET VALLEY HIGH, a musical based upon the internationally
best-selling series of teen books (and the popular syndicated TV
show of the same title.) In the meantime, his other musical theater
project, entitled MEMPHIS, is about to hit the stage. MEMPHIS is
based upon the life of 1950's radio personality DEWEY PHILIPS who
was the first to introduce white Memphis kids to rhythm and blues...
he's responsible for getting rock 'n' roll started on radio (even
before Alan Freed coined the term!) The musical was written by DAVE
BRYAN along with Joe DiPietro, who also wrote the off- Broadway
smash 'I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change' and 'Over The River
and Through The Woods'. DAVE will be on location to watch his project
being read by Theater Works of Palo Alto, CA - the readings will
take place on May 4 at the Mountain View Center for the Performing
Arts (noon and 8pm.) Congratulations, Dave!
