Time remains linear and ever-running out, while Choice presents many different, life-altering paths. How would you navigate her this journey, to find for a her a path most meaningful and free?
Inspired by choose-your-own-adventure books of our childhood, THE BOX is an interactive concept musical featuring songs from musicals reflecting different moments of a lifetime to create a mosaic of the fictional character’s Life. The audience is collectively invited to make choices that determine the path she takes.
An allegory of consequence and personal agency, this performance created by 7/8 Musical Collective explores the elusiveness of choice, and the possibilities presented by one single, diverging moment.
Featuring songs from existing musicals past and present.
