SPECIAL THANKS

The World of EVERY WEDNESDAY NIGHT


Lights up on Escondidos. 

"Every Wednesday Night" is a heartwarming pop/rock musical that dives into life, love, loss, and the magical healing of music. The show centers on a young man dealing with the loss of his father while on the brink of fatherhood himself. On a whim, he steps into a local New Jersey bar on a karaoke night and finds himself among a quirky group of regulars, each using the microphone to escape from their own troubles. As they belt out fifteen original, powerful songs, they form bonds, create a community of "misfit singers," and share life-altering moments. "Every Wednesday Night" is all about finding courage and healing in unexpected places. Join us for a feel-good musical adventure where every off-key note is a cause for celebration and "just sing" is the motto for moving forward.
