SCENES FROM A SONG

by Susan Sloate | Music Drama

Which songs are the soundtrack of your life?


Everyone has a song that brings back memories or keeps you going when you're ready to quit. And whenever you hear it, it lifts your heart...


On Halloween afternoon 1961, 17-year-old Jimmy Welton still mourns his father, who taught him to love music but died just a few months before, and he fiercely misses their old life in Long Island, New York and hates the dingy apartment in the Bronx where they were forced to move. That's the day Jimmy hears the beginning of a song in his head and takes it with him to his after-school job at a New York amusement park. There, he meets Mark Morgan, a rebellious teen with his own rock'n roll band, who eventually invites Jimmy to join them. And the rest is music history...


The Goosebumps, the band they form, becomes the gold standard of rock bands, and the songs they write together become the backbone of rock musical history. And the song Jimmy heard in his heart that Halloween afternoon, "Wrapped in Gauze", becomes the song that not only comforts him in that dark time but also comforts others, who need it when their lives take a dark turn--the mother struggling to survive divorce and a sick child, the troubled wife who can't take back her last words to someone in pain, the injured and angry young man trying to rebuild his life... 


SCENES FROM A SONG is the story of the songs that nurture us, that lift us up when we need them, that stay with us forever, and the very special band that started it all.
