Broadway Lights tells the epic tale of Wyatt and Jeanie; an aspiring singer-songwriter and his would-be artist girlfriend who leave their family, friends and their small Missouri town behind to reach their dreams in the 1990’s Big Apple.

REVIEWS
...from the Duplex Cabaret Theatre performance (3/14/20)...
“Imagine early Springsteen paired with ‘Bat Out of Hell’ composer Jim Steinman on a rocking R&B-inflected score, and you're at the starting gate of Dan McCormick's ‘Broadway Lights.’ It's the well-trammeled tale of a country boy looking to make it big in the city, but with an assortment of instantly hummable melodies that crackle with vitality. McCormick’s cast meets every melody with aplomb, as one soloist after another adds depth and shine to the material.”
