Love. Loss. Rock ‘n’ Roll. Repeat.
about the show
A one-act indie-rock concert musical that reimagines the Orpheus and Eurydice myth through an emo/pop/rock lens.
Jack, a broken songwriter from Nebraska, takes a surreal cab ride into a soundless world to rescue his muse, Melody, from the grip of a dangerously devoted fangirl. But each time he sings the story, he’s doomed to repeat it — trapped in a cycle of grief and performance for their twisted Persephone.
Performed entirely thru-sung and staged in concert form, the piece blurs the line between myth, rock show, and fever dream.
One Act, Emo/Pop/Rock, Thru Sung, Dance/Movement, Medium Cast (3 Principal Performers + Ensemble).
