Now accepting auditions

Love and Vinyl

Set amidst the record stacks of a real-life music shop, Love and Vinyl explores what it means to seek genuine connection in a digital world. The play follows lifelong friends Bogie, an accountant, and Zane, a teacher, during a late-night visit to their favorite record store. When they meet Sage, the shop’s insightful and grounded owner, the evening takes an unexpected turn—mixing humor, heart, and nostalgia as they reflect on love, loss, and the beauty of analog moments in a digital age.
