Event Details
All performances take place at Post Theatre Company's Little Theatre. Tickets go on sale Friday, February 13 at 12 pm, and are available exclusively through the Post Theatre Company Box Office, online, in person, or by phone.
In collaboration with legendary rock band FOREIGNER, Tilles Center for the Performing Arts and Long Island University’s Post Theatre Company proudly announce the creative team and performance schedule for the first production of Feels Like the First Time – The Foreigner Musical.
Set in 1985, Feels Like the First Time – The Foreigner Musical follows an ordinary suburban family whose lives are turned upside down when they win an extraordinary MTV sweepstakes: a weekend visit from rock icon Simon Bash, capped by a private concert in their own backyard. While the Davis family eagerly prepares for Simon’s arrival, their neighbors' attitudes quickly change, each hoping to leverage the superstar’s presence to boost their own social standing, save careers, or land a prom date. Convinced that Simon, the ultimate “Juke Box Hero,” holds the solution to all their problems, they soon discover just how wrong they are when he stumbles off the tour bus.
Powered by some of the biggest hits in rock history, the musical tells the story of three families whose lives need to get rocked in order to take risks, mend old wounds, and rediscover what love really means. Blending humor and heart, Feels Like the First Time features FOREIGNER favorites including “Cold as Ice,” “Waiting for a Girl Like You,” “Urgent,” “Hot-Blooded,” “I Want to Know What Love Is,” and more.
This first production is directed by Tony nominated Adam Pascal (RENT, Aida, Cabaret, Chicago, Something Rotten!), who also serves as Long Island University’s inaugural 2025/26 Artist-in-Residence. The creative team includes book writer Stephen Garvey (The Bardy Bunch, Five Golden Rings, Stages of Rita: The Rita Hayworth Musical), orchestrator and arranger David Abbinanti (Heartbreak Hotel, Saturday Night Fever: The Musical, Ghost: The Musical), and choreographer Lorna Ventura (The Other Americans, Public Theater, Destiny of Desire, Old Globe Theater, Broadway Original Company/Associate Choreographer Wicked, Nice Work if You Can Get It, All Shook Up, Grease).
