A Brief Night Out, A Rock Opera
Marla Mase returns to the stage to perform a “STRIPPED DOWN” version of
“A Brief Night Out, A Rock Opera“ at the Triad Theatre on December 12, 2011.

Writer and performer Marla Mase is set to deliver a special one-night-only performance of her stunning one-woman rock opera, A Brief Night Out, on Monday, December 12th at The Triad in New York City. Mase will be joined by the Tomás Doncker Band and the evening will feature direction from Sara Berg.
A Brief Night Out is Marla’s Mase’s rock-n-roll fairytale of a modern-day, middle-aged woman who apparently has it all: a husband, two kids, a business, friends, and yet she is falling apart. She embarks on an affair with the man of her dreams and discovers a self (for better or for worse) that has long remained hidden. It’s a mid-life rock-n-roll crisis!
