This Living on the Road is One True Story Overview

"This Living on the Road is One True Story" is the book and lyrics for a Country and Western musical revue.

There is a band with two singers on-stage, and there is a chorus of honky-tonk patrons on-stage. The play consists of the musico-visual dialog between these two "characters:" 1) the band and singers, and 2) the chorus of patrons. That is, the chorus of patrons who enact the songs -- through dance, pantomime, tableaux-making, etc. -- are in fact more the focus of the show than are the band and singers. This "part" of the chorus calls for numerous performers, and is intended as a wide-open opportunity for creating evocative theater -- by directors, choreographers, costume and lighting and scenic designers -- the panoply of theater-making talent. Such a wide range of theater-making skills, in artists inclined to experiment, is most often found in college and university performing arts programs.

"This Living on the Road is One True Story" is particularly well-suited for use by college and university musical theater training institutions.

Synopsis: Late one night in a honky-tonk/road house, a fiddles and pedal-steel band hits the stage. The band's musicians, led by its singer and its songstress, perform the songs of the group's last set. The lead singers' banter and commentary between songs is fraught with the tensions of their off-stage relationship. The patrons of the honky-tonk, playing from their stage-space adjunct to that of the singers and band, are both audience to the singers and band, and enactors of the songs. The gesture and dance tableaux-sequences of the patrons are as central to the show as the words and music song-sequences of the band and singers.

The songs of the show are: Big Rain; That's When You Know You're There Where Heartbreak Begins; Now that Grandpa's Come Back Home; Who'll Save Us Both From Lonely Now; Cry Angel Cry; Here's To That Fearful Day; Darling I'll Fight This War for You; 90 Days In the Line; Good Morning, Rifleman; Love's Lost Highway; My How This Old Town Has Changed; Streets of Omaha; Can You See the Blue Ridge Mountains?; Most of All, I Remember; Two Lane Black Top Motel; Home is the Highway; Where that Whip-Poor-Will Still Sings.

The music for the songs is by Izzabella -- izzasongs.com. The book and lyrics are by Will Owen -- willowen.com and willow-n.com.
