City Stage at Level 5, 21 N. Front Street

Inspired by the David Lynch cult classic, the creative team of Anthony Lawson, Bryan Putnam and producer, Alisa Harris, have conspired to recreate the sadistic, seedy, sexy and sometimes silly goings on in the underbelly of Lumberton, USA. This workshop of the musical-in-progress will feature the full score, songs and script in a bare bones presentation in order to garner feedback and whet the whistles of Blue Velvet fans everywhere. Be the first to check out this new noir musical inspired by one of Wilmington, NC’s most iconic films.
