The Green Room (Musical) Plot & Characters

Overview

Synopsis

The Green Room is an off-Broadway backstage musical illustrating the journey of four best friends in college determined to make it out of the Green Room and onto the off-Broadway stage. John, Cliff, Anna, and Divonne live out their complicated lives in the green room of their college theater department. Often hilarious, at times heartwarming, this modern musical gives an authentic account of the struggles these four have in finding their place in the world. The rock-pop-infused score includes the Songwriter's Guild of America Award-winning song "It's All About Me."
