Soundwall: A New Rock Musical by Joe Andolino and Nick Nappo
October 9, 2024
Join us at 54 Below for selections from Soundwall, A New Rock Musical. Sound Wall is a compelling musical drama that follows Andreas, a young musician in Phoenix struggling to balance the demands of impending fatherhood, a looming family business takeover, and his own aspirations for a music career. Despite his calm exterior, Andreas grapples with severe anxiety, relying heavily on medication to navigate the pressures from his father Jeff and his girlfriend Sam. His childhood friend Dax offers a potential escape by suggesting a move to Los Angeles, where they could both pursue their musical dreams. The opportunity sparks a conflict within Andreas between his existing commitments and the lure of his artistic ambitions.
The musical explores themes of personal responsibility, the impact of mental health on life choices, and the struggle between fulfilling personal desires and familial duties, all encapsulated in the metaphor of the “sound wall” that Andreas must ultimately break through to find his true path.
Written by Nick Nappo with direction by Joe Andolino, audiences will be captivated by well-crafted adult contemporary progressive songs and lyrics that are inspired by the greats of 70s and 80s music. This is a chance to see the best performers in the rock music genre in one place!
This evening is produced by Laurie Edwards of Willful Entertainment in conjunction with First You Dream Entertainment of New York.
