DREAMSVILLE

The Academy of Performing Arts in Orleans presents DREAMSVILLE, a fascinating, funny, and moving one-woman play about the adventures of the classic-rock pioneer who built 16 magazine, the era’s biggest teen-idol magazine and influenced pop culture for a generation. Meet the unlikely woman behind America’s rock and roll dreams. Miss Stavers” nurtured young America’s dreams of their fave raves—from Elvis and The Beatles to The Monkees and beyond—while making the unlikely climb from clerk to boss and falling for a star … just like one of her readers. DREAMSVILLE is the voyage of this unheralded pop pioneer and what happens when obsession, desire, and identity clash. By Cape-based playwright Susan Lumenello, starring the brilliantly talented Missy Potash of West Barnstable and directed by Judy Hamer.
