Welcome to the boardwalk.
Famed guitarist and international rock legend Slash (Guns N’ Roses) will join the company of Broadway’s The Lost Boys for one night only later this week.
On August 13, Slash (born Saul Hudson) will take to the stage of the Palace Theatre to play guitar during the show. The performance will mark Slash’s Broadway debut.
The Lost Boys, which was nominated for 12 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, won four Tonys June 7, including Best Performance by a Featured Actor in a Musical for Bourzgui, Best Performance by a Featured Actress in a Musical for Shoshana Bean, Best Scenic Design of a Musical for Dane Laffrey, and Best Lighting Design of a Musical for Jen Schriever and Michael Arden.
With Arden at the helm, The Lost Boys features a book by David Hornsby and Chris Hoch and music by the band The Rescues. The Lost Boys uses vampirism to explore the physical transformation, sexual awakening, and identity experimentation of a teenager’s coming of age. When the brotherly duo of Michael and Sam move to the fictional town of Santa Carla, California, with their single mother, they inadvertently end up in the crosshairs of a group of teenage rebel vampires and adolescent vampire hunters.
