THE SHOW
Monstersongs puts audiences in a synthesized world of graphic novels, rock musicals, live performance, and new technology. Following the journey of a child who opens a portal into the psyches of often misunderstood creatures; Monstersongs flips the switch on the monster narrative, inviting audiences to explore the humanity that binds us all.
This production fuses Forgotten Lore's immersive stylings with Rob Rokicki's score and David O'Neill's illustrations to create a playful and poignant theatrical experience where theater-goers may unearth, interact with, or even become monsters.
If you are unable to attend auditions in person but would like to still be considered, you can contact the director R.A. Reutter through this email: [email protected].
