Performers in Stephen King/Mellencamp Musical To Play Eddie's Attic

The Stephen King/John Mellencamp Musical "Ghost Brothers of Darkland County" will premiere April 4 at the Alliance Theater in Atlanta, but you can expect to see plenty of the show's actor-musicians in Decatur before that.

As a press release from the Woodruff Arts Center explains

The Alliance Theatre and live music venue have partnered to host a concert series showcasing the actor-musicians in the Alliance’s upcoming world premiere musical Ghost Brothers of Darkland County – Book by Stephen King; Music & Lyrics by John Mellencamp; Musical Direction by T Bone Burnett. 

The five-week series, titled Darkland County Tuesdays, begins February 28 and boasts an impressive line-up of Atlanta-based and national performers.

Be aware, the musicians are not expected to perform any pieces from the musical. They're supposed to play their own stuff. But in a live setting, who knows what will happen?

Here's the schedule, with cast members in boldface. If you're dead set on seeing a particular performer, call ahead because the lineup may change. All shows start at 8 p.m.

• February 28 – Lori Beth Edgeman w/ Danny “Mudcat” Dudeck, and Jake La Botz
• March 6 – Gwen Hughes, Jeremy Aggers, and Joe Jung
• March 13 – Justin Guarini, and Kate Ferber w/ Peter Albrink and Lucas Kavner
