The show runs from Aug. 1-25 at the Lyceum Stage Theatre.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c33 1\/3 &#8211; House of Dreams\u201d tells the story of Hollywood\u2019s Gold Star Recording Studios: both the hit-making musicians in front of the mic and the crew behind it, including co-founder and lead engineer Stan Ross. The story is told to a tonal backdrop that samples from the more than 120 Top 40 hits and iconic songs the studio produced. The playlist includes such classics as \u201cSummertime Blues,\u201d \u201cLa Bamba,\u201d &#8220;Be My Baby,&#8221; \u201cUnchained Melody,\u201d and \u201cWouldn\u2019t It Be Nice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In its 33 1\/3-year run \u2014 the title references both the number of years the studio was open and the RPMs on a record \u2014 Gold Star worked with just about every musical genre you can imagine. From Iron Butterfly to Ritchie Valens and The Beach Boys to Ike and Tina Turner, Gold Star produced it all. Legends like The Rolling Stones, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, and The Beatles all made trips to Gold Star to experience its magic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEstrella Dorada fue la <em>la meca<\/em> \u2014 the place to go to in the \u201960s,\u201d said co-writer Dr. Brad Ross. In later decades, even after it lost its commercial standing, the studio would still be a musical pilgrimage (The Ramones referred to it as \u201challowed ground\u201d \u2014 their own Abbey Road).<\/p>\n<p>Pero este espect\u00e1culo de rock &#039;n&#039; roll no comenz\u00f3 (o termin\u00f3) como una compilaci\u00f3n de algunas de las canciones m\u00e1s queridas del siglo pasado. Comenz\u00f3 como una forma de que un hijo descubra m\u00e1s sobre su padre.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Los lazos familiares<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Brad Ross is the son of Stan and Vera Ross. Even though Brad grew up while Stan was still working in the recording studio, he was less starstruck and more just doing his own thing (although Brad admitted that having Sonny and Cher at his brother\u2019s bat mitzvah was quite the coup!). Although Brad played the drums and was part of a cover band, his main career had always been dentistry.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38809\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38809\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-38809 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/sduptownnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Brad-Ross-and-Jonathan-Rosenberg-300dpi.jpg\" alt=\"A dream musical born in a dentist chair\" width=\"600\" height=\"480\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/480;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38809\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(l to r) Dr. Brad Ross and Jonathan Rosenberg (Photo courtesy R&amp;R Productions, LLC)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cMi padre dijo, escucha, el negocio de la m\u00fasica es realmente dif\u00edcil\u201d, record\u00f3 Brad, haciendo referencia a algunos de los grandes bateristas que vio su padre y por lo que tuvieron que pasar. \u201cDecid\u00ed hacer m\u00fasica como un pasatiempo y seguir una carrera diferente\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The choice paid off, as Brad established Mission Trails Dentistry located in San Carlos in 1988.

Actually, they first met on the Little League field, when Jon\u2019s son played T-ball as a \u201cDr. Ross Tooth Fixer!\u201d Long after his son had graduated into other sports, Jon kept coming back to Brad for his dental needs.<\/p>\n<p>When Stan passed away in 2011, Brad decided that he wanted to learn more about the man behind the legend. He planned to interview some of the surviving and close-by musicians Stan worked with. Brad recruited Jon to be his road trip and interview partner, due to Jon\u2019s radio and musical background, which included disc jockeying in Michigan and interviewing for KPBS.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJon came in for a typical dental visit, and was my captive audience,\u201d joked Brad.<\/p>\n<p>They started traveling to Los Angeles and Palm Springs in 2012, meeting with titans such as Brian Wilson and Bill Medley. The more people they talked to, the more the pair discovered just how well-loved Stan was. He treated people as individuals, with integrity and respect.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMencionar el nombre de Stan fue como abrir las llaves del reino\u201d, dijo Jon con respecto a pasar tiempo con \u00edconos musicales.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLa gente lo amaba y \u00e9l los amaba\u201d, dijo Brad.<\/p>\n<p>Pero aproximadamente seis meses despu\u00e9s de su viaje por carretera, los hombres se dieron cuenta de que esto era m\u00e1s que una simple colecci\u00f3n de historias para la familia de Brad.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe message kept being, \u2018Gold Star and your father and Dave [Gold; Gold Star partner] were a game-changer,\u2019\u201d Brad recalled. \u201cBut I\u2019m a dentist \u2014 I knew I had a story to share, and I knew I needed teammates. I could not do this by myself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Entran los expertos<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Jon and Brad wrote the first script together, and chose 30 different songs to represent Gold Star\u2019s progression. But through readings in Jon\u2019s apartment building and the Lamplighter\u2019s Theatre in La Mesa, the reaction was consistently, \u201cWe love the music \u2014 work on the story.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Entonces, lo hicieron. A instancias de la esposa de Jon, se acerc\u00f3 a Javier Velasco, el director art\u00edstico del San Diego Ballet y tambi\u00e9n core\u00f3grafo y dramaturgo. El tr\u00edo se reuni\u00f3 oficialmente en una pieza que Steve Gunderson y Javier hab\u00edan concebido y montado en el representante de San Diego como &quot;Everybody&#039;s Talkin&#039;: The Music of Harry Nilsson&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>Javier se sinti\u00f3 inmediatamente atra\u00eddo por el potencial que ofrec\u00eda el programa.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEl programa me result\u00f3 atractivo en dos frentes. Primero, esta pieza trata sobre la creaci\u00f3n de un &#039;espacio&#039; art\u00edstico. No la historia de un solo artista, sino un crisol para los artistas\u201d, explic\u00f3. \u201cLo segundo es que se trataba de gente com\u00fan y corriente: la gente com\u00fan que apoyaba a los artistas y la gente que apoyaba a la gente que apoyaba a los artistas\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c33 1\/3 \u2013 House of Dreams\u201d no solo cuenta la historia de Gold Star; cuenta la historia de amor de Stan y Vera. Habla de la profunda amistad entre Stan y Dave.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStan era el personaje de Gold Star, pero no habr\u00eda Gold Star sin Dave\u201d, declar\u00f3 Brad.<\/p>\n<p>Dave fue en realidad responsable de ayudar a crear y construir todo el equipo de Gold Star. Esto incluye la c\u00e1mara de eco que ayud\u00f3 a crear el estilo de producci\u00f3n &quot;Wall of Sound&quot; que se hizo famoso por Phil Specter, Larry Levine y su equipo de m\u00fasicos de estudio conocido como &quot;The Wrecking Crew&quot; (quienes tambi\u00e9n fueron perfilados en un documental de 2008 aclamado por la cr\u00edtica). ). Aunque Dave no est\u00e1 directamente involucrado en el espect\u00e1culo por razones de salud, Brad enfatiz\u00f3 que tambi\u00e9n est\u00e1n tratando de honrarlo en el musical.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Deja los cuartos en casa<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Although \u201c33 1\/3 \u2013 House of Dreams\u201d features many of the storylines and songs in Gold Star\u2019s history, what it <em>no <\/em>hacer es convertirse en una revista musical. Esta fue la visi\u00f3n de Brad y Jon desde el principio, y Javier tom\u00f3 la iniciativa.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo importa lo bueno que sea, no s\u00e9 si el mundo necesita un musical m\u00e1s de m\u00e1quina de discos\u201d, dijo Javier. Dijo que lo que s\u00ed necesita es lo que proporciona el programa, \u201cuna celebraci\u00f3n de las buenas acciones y los lazos de amistad y amor que hacemos durante nuestras vidas\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Javier accedi\u00f3 a dirigir y coreografiar la producci\u00f3n. Trajo a Steve, uno de sus socios creativos desde hace mucho tiempo, para que se desempe\u00f1ara como director musical, arreglista y colaborador del gui\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<p>Steve was also nervous about doing a \u201cjukebox musical,\u201d especially after his success on one of the original music compilation shows, \u201cSuds.\u201d But he was drawn in by the incredible history of Gold Star.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u201933 1\/3 \u2013 House of Dreams\u2019 is such a unique opportunity to dive into a real-life history, and also to delve into the nature of creativity,\u201d Steve said.<\/p>\n<p>Y con eso, con la ayuda comercial de Michael Kruke y el incre\u00edble apoyo de sus familias, Brad y Jon encontraron a los compa\u00f1eros de equipo que necesitaban para llevar \u201c33 1\/3 \u2013 House of Dreams\u201d de un sue\u00f1o a la realidad.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEs una pareja hecha en el cielo\u201d, dijo efusivamente Jon. \u201cSon muchachos locales, y la cr\u00e8me de la cr\u00e8me del teatro de San Diego\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Los cuatro todav\u00eda tienen conversaciones casi a diario, y Jon se\u00f1ala que probablemente ser\u00e1 as\u00ed hasta el final del programa.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCada uno tiene un asiento en la mesa creativa, y creo que nos retamos unos a otros y, al final, sacamos lo mejor de cada uno.<em>,\u201d <\/em>explained Steve.<\/p>\n<p>El programa tambi\u00e9n saca lo mejor del representante de San Diego, encajando perfectamente con su misi\u00f3n de ofrecer un trabajo que sea \u00edntimo y, a veces, provocativo, y centr\u00e1ndose en historias que resalten la rica cultura de California.<\/p>\n<p>A portion of actors and musicians are also students from the San Diego School of Creative and Performing Art\u2019s Xchange Xperience program, which allows a select group to participate in a Repertory Theatre production from rehearsals through public performances.<\/p>\n<p>Para m\u00e1s informaci\u00f3n o para comprar boletos para \u201c33 1\/3 \u2013 House of Dreams,\u201d visite <a href=\"http:\/\/sdrep.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sdrep.org<\/a> o llame al 619-544-1000.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u2014 Se puede contactar a la escritora independiente Joyell Nevins en <\/em><em><u><a href=\"mailto:joyellc@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">joyellc@gmail.com<\/a><\/u><\/em><em>.
