DIVERSIONARY THEATRE ANNOUNCES THE CAST AND CREATIVE TEAM
OF THE SAN DIEGO PREMIERE MUSICAL
GIRLFRIEND
It’s 1993 and mixtapes are the language of love. Set in the American heartland during the summer between high school and whatever comes next, college-bound jock Mike and self-assured but aimless Will find themselves drawn to each other. Their rush of first love full of excitement, confusion, and passion, forges an unlikely bond neither were expecting. Told to the power-pop precision of Matthew Sweet’s seminal rock album, Girlfriend is a vibrant new musical about the terror and thrill of discovering yourself, and the life you want to lead.
WHAT: Diversionary announces the cast of the San Diego Premiere of GIRLFRIEND
WHO: Stephen Brotebeck will direct this San Diego Premiere by Matthew Sweet and Todd Almond.
WHEN: Performances run September 12 – October 13. Performances run Thursdays at 7pm, Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm, and Sundays at 2pm. Opening Night is Saturday, September 21st.
