Trapper Schoepp is a Milwaukee-based singer songwriter and multi-instrumentalist known for his cinematic blend of Americana, folk, and rootsrock. Since releasing his first albums as a teen, he’s earned acclaim for his lyrical storytelling—cowriting a song with Bob Dylan, and recording Siren Songs at Johnny Cash’s famed Cash Cabin. His live shows channel that same storytelling spirit—equal parts heartfelt, humorous, and high energy—making him a standout voice in today’s Americana scene.

It is 1942, and two of Hollywood’s biggest divas, Claudia McFadden and Athena Sinclair, have descended upon the luxurious Palm Beach Royale Hotel. The stars bring with them two assistants, two sets of luggage, two overblown egos, and one legendary feud. Everything seems to be in order for their benefit performance for the troops— until they are mistakenly assigned to the same suite. Can bumbling bellhops, steadfast secretaries, and a stuffy hotel manager keep these fierce rivals apart? Or will this benefit performance end in a delicious disaster? Check into the Palm Beach Royale Hotel and check out mistaken identities, double entendres, a nosy gossip columnist, disappearing roses, dramatic door slamming, and a pampered, pocketsized pooch named Mr. Boodles. Settle into this suite and surrender to this hilarious love note to the classic farces of the ’30s and ’40s.
