It’s the story of Marty Stein, enterprising New York nightclub owner; he’s the Mafia’s midwife at the births of Be-Bop and Rock & Roll. Mob money and muscle fuel the growth of Marty’s music empire; the more he achieves, the more he’s endangered by his life-long friends and partners in the Romano crime family. From extortion and payola to narcotics and murder, it’s all business-as-usual for these New York gangsters and THE FRONT MAN. Based on the secret history of American music, Todd Souvignier’s THE FRONT MAN is a dark comedy so true it can only be told as fiction. THE FRONT MAN captures the excitement, danger, and scandal of early Rock & Roll with eighteen original songs by New Orleans composer Todd Souvignier, and an energetic, talented cast. Todd Souvignier’s THE FRONT MAN World Premiere final performances are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, January 29–31, at Backyard Ballroom, 3519 St. Claude Ave, New Orleans LA. Show times are at 8PM. Advance tickets on sale now at http://thefrontman.eventbrite.com tickets are $20 in advance, $25 at the door. All tickets are general admission; show up early for best seats.
