In our current issue, Alex Rawls tells the story behind Nine Lives, Paul Sanchez and Colman DeKay’s musical adaptation of Dan Baum’s book. Plans are afoot to take it to New York this summer to try to shop the project to the city’s theater community, but on Wednesday, May 4, the first full live presentation of the music from it will take place at Le Petit Theatre at 7 p.m. The band will be Matt Perrine, Larry Sieberth, Shane Theriot, Paul Sanchez, Eric Bolivar, Shamarr Allen and Craig Klein; the vocalists will be announced when they’re confirmed.

Tickets are not yet on sale, but Mystery Street Records–which released the album–is starting a mailing list for those who want to know when tickets will be on sale, considering they’ll likely go quickly. Get on it here.
