“This is the sky for you.” And here is the band. Performance company Half Straddle puts its critically acclaimed songwriting at the fore in a theatrical pop song cycle that burrows and soars through the twisted layers of romance among best friends and a family band of yesteryear. An out-loud and personal attempt to love all the best ghosts.
With text and lyrics by Tina Satter, the “genre-and-gender-bending, visually exacting stage artist” (The New York Times) and music by Chris Giarmo and Erin Markey, the show unfurls a narrative of contemporary friendship and family-making told through virtuosic performances and evocative design. Mixing deadpan magical realism with the considerations of feminist thinkers, the resulting piece is a tender, harrowingly funny, unexpected musical experience.
PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE:
TUESDAY thru SUNDAY @ 7:30 PM
