Northern Manhattan’s UP Theater Company celebrates its 13th Season with their first production featuring live music in the world premiere of “The Best Punk Band in Conway, Missouri: An Oral History of Presley Cox and The Fallout Five,” by Kirby Fields. This semi-musical flashback focuses on members of a regionally infamous 1988 punk band who dive into their past to regain control of their own troubled story. Directed by Rachael Murray.

In “The Best Punk Band in Conway, Missouri,” Presley Cox and her former band members replay their hard-knocked, youthful history of forming a punk band to escape their small-town lives. With a cast of eight playing nearly fifty roles, this new play with original songs asks the question, “Can you create your own culture to escape your own roots?”

The company includes Jason Guy*, Lisa Graham Parson, Devin Romero, Samantha Simone*, Henry Temple*, Kirk White*, Jess Wood, and Zuzu.

*Member of Actors’ Equity Association / AEA approved showcase
