Starstruck

Starstruck is a sharp and surprising new musical set in the tiny mountain town of Sawtooth, Idaho, where the night sky is under threat and the stars have never felt closer. Cyd DeBerg, a passionate astronomer with a talent for alienating people, is determined to win Dark Sky Reserve status for her town—but not if bar owner JD’s neon sign has anything to say about it. Enter Roxanne, a hotshot NPR podcaster who comes to cover the conflict but ends up discovering a deeper story about connection, change, and unexpected attraction. With a book by Tony Award nominee Beth Malone (Fun Home, Angels in America) and Mary Ann Stratton, and music and lyric by Emily Saliers (Indigo Girls), Starstruck is a joyful, funny, and ultimately luminous story about what happens when you stop fighting the dark—and start embracing it.

Malone stars as Cyd DeBerg alongside Krysta Rodriguez (Smash, Into the Woods) as Roxanne Cooley and Sam Gravitte (Wicked) as Chris.
