Dorie Theatre at The Complex (Los Angeles, CA)
Take a song-cyle like Jason Robert Brown’s Songs for a New World, throw in the autobiographical structure of Stew’s Passing Strange and in the introspective, folkish-vibe of Joni Mitchell and Carole King and you get but a taste of the richness of The Girl is Still Here. Inspired by the compelling real-life story of its creators, this original song cycle follows Debe (The Wild One) and Gayle (The Wise) on their road to self-discovery from the promise of the ’60s to the challenges of today. With each song their lives unfold — from a close friendship as girls, to divergent experiences as women, and finally to reunion and a glorious songwriting partnership during their so-called “retirement years.” Be there for the premiere of this entertaining vision of womanhood, complete with comedy, tragedy and rare emotional insight.
