Join us at 54 Below for selections from SOUNDWALL: A NEW ROCK MUSICAL. SOUNDWALL is a compelling musical drama that follows Andreas, a young musician in Phoenix struggling to balance the demands of his personal relationships, a looming family business takeover, and his own aspirations for a music career. Despite his calm exterior, Andreas grapples with severe anxiety, relying heavily on medication to navigate the pressures from his father Jeff and his girlfriend Sam. His best friend Dax offers a potential escape by suggesting a move to Los Angeles, where they could both pursue their musical dreams. The opportunity sparks a conflict within Andreas between his existing commitments and the lure of his artistic ambitions.
The musical explores themes of personal responsibility, the impact of mental health on life choices, and the struggle between fulfilling personal desires and familial duties, all encapsulated in the metaphor of the “soundwall” that Andreas must ultimately break through to find his true path.
Written by Nick Nappo with direction by Joe Andolino, audiences will be captivated by well-crafted adult contemporary progressive songs and lyrics that are inspired by the greats of 70s and 80s music. This is a chance to see the best performers in the rock music genre in one place!
