Truck Stop
A new musical that ponders the old time challenges of good versus evil, will have its inaugural run at the newly restored, historical stage at Oyster Bay High School. The premiere showing brings to the forefront the questions surrounding human behavior. The show runs Jan. 15 and 16 at 8 p.m. and Jan.17 at 3 p.m. At the truck stop, a mystical traveler finds himself among the workers in a diner. While there, various situations arise – and not for the better, with an unexpected ending that will have you glued to your seats. Long Island residents Frank Roman and George Petersen (Garden City) blend their writing, lyrical, and musical talents culminating in a new musical sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Directed by Todd Balch.
