Story for Rock Bottom
Originally commissioned as part of The Joe’s Pub 2013 New York Voices series, ROCK BOTTOM will have a full theatrical run as part of The Public’s 2014-15 season. Written by the ferociously talented Bridget Everett with Tony Award-winning songwriting duo Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman plus additional music collaboration by Adam “Ad-Rock” Horovitz and Matt Ray, ROCK BOTTOM is the entertainer’s first major production since her 2007 musical At Least It’s Pink. ROCK BOTTOM is what happens when you’re too passionate to give up, and too big to fail. In it, Everett, who The New York Times has called an “early Bette Midler,” barrels through life tip-toeing toward disaster, wine bottle by wine bottle and man by man. However, instead of succumbing to a chardonnay-induced stupor, Everett embraces a series of revelations that lead her and her voice of an angel to redemption. It features new original songs written with Shaiman, Wittman, Ray and Horovitz, as well as familiar favorites heard in Everett’s monthly sold-out showcase with her band The Tender Moments at Joe’s Pub.
