Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - It's really remarkable how over the years, Act II Entertainment has nurtured and developed such amazing talent in stars like Alfonso López and Kami Desilets from the box office record-breaking hit, Avenue Q.
"They're Playing Our Song" is a love story about a neurotic composer and a wacky lyricist who form a partnership and a tempestuous romance, expressing their thoughts in song both in their own solos and in songs where each is backed by two "alter egos."
The story is based on the real-life relationship of Hamlisch and Sager; a wisecracking composer finds a new, offbeat lyricist, but initially the match is not one made in heaven. The two undergo a series of trials and overcome a number of hurdles before finding true love by the final curtain.
"They're Playing Our Song" is essentially a two-character show. Vernon and Sonia are the sole characters on stage; each character has the beautiful songs of Hamlisch and Sager as their inner voices. He writes the music, she writes the words, and they're trying to make their lives as harmonious as their music.
What do you get when you combine the music of Marvin Hamlisch, the lyrics of Carole Bayer Sager, and a story from playwright Neil Simon? You get the "Holy Trinity" of talent creating the phenomenal musical, "They're Playing Our Song." Don't miss the remaining performances by two of Puerto Vallarta's most talented actors, at Act II Stages on March 18, 21, 22, 25, 28 and 29th at 7:00 pm.Tickets to all shows can be purchased online at actiientertainment.com, at the box office, which opens at 10 am daily, or at the 2nd Box Office location, across the street from Garbos on Pulpito Street in the Romantic Zone.
