Shapeshifters: A Queer Comic Book Musical
Event description
Be part of the developmental process and one of the first audiences of a wonderful NEW MUSICAL in this pilot production.
Shapeshifters, written by Truth Future Bachman (they/them), is a music-theatre multiverse dedicated to LGBTQIA2S+ superheroes. Using the lens of superhero science fiction, Shapeshifters encourages young queer and trans participants, and their allies, to consider what “others” them as their superpower, and is equal parts entertainment, education, and empowerment.
The show is still being workshopped following a presentation at Joe’s Pub in NYC. This actor-driven production is part of the pilot development process and will include the making of a short documentary as record of the show’s growth. The show is designed to allow participants to create text as part of the narrative, providing the opportunity to inject their personal DNA into this theatrical experience. With a fantastic techno-inspired score unlike anything you’ve heard before, this is an amazing opportunity to be part of the creation of a new musical!
Seating is General, on a first come basis.
NOTE: Performances are at The Black Box Theatre at Edmonds College. Don't enter "Ballyhoo Theatre" into your GPS, you'll wind up at a mailbox!
