Support “SOL” The Musical-From Page To Stage

Hi! For those of you that don’t know me my name is Charlene, aka Cher, and I am a singer-songwriter and playwright in the San Francisco Bay Area. In 2020 I created an original musical called “SOL” and this past Summer was able to complete all composition of the music, which has a mix of sounds from the 80s along with origins of Spanish folk music. From a very young age, I’ve always been very moved by music and storytelling and within these last few years I’m beyond grateful of coming into realization that pursuing creative projects such as this is really a dream come true. I was inspired to create this musical to tell a shareable and relatable story including themes of immigration, overcoming family hardships, and representing Island life vs American culture. While creating this project I was able to really get in touch with my roots and create new voices to be heard. This project also represents minorities in theater, and speaks to this moment of AAPI and BIPOC representation and empowerment - a movement we should all embrace.

My goal is to get “SOL” From page to stage and in doing so have to work on all the pre-development stages to get it on its feet. Any contribution would graciously be put towards completing music demos, rehearsal/stage venues, equipment rentals, and marketing.

I’m happy to announce that “SOL” will finally have its first public preview next year, along with a few more developing performances in the works. I’m looking forward to working with and introducing the talented cast lineup! A huge thank you to everyone that has supported my project this far and grateful to everyone’s support along the way. Stay tuned for updates!
