Equal parts comic book lore, coming-of-age love story and irrepressible tunes, audiences should expect the unexpected in this sensational new indie rock musical. The fast-moving plot recounts the mysterious event that changed Trevor’s life forever, launching him into a life-long search for identity and acceptance. Is he a freak or a hero? Triple-threat artist Justin Huertas and his original cast take the stage for one fateful night of adventure, music, and love set on the streets of Seattle.
SF/Arts Curator Insight
This indie rock musical by Justin Huertas premiered--and is set in--Seattle. We follow three characters, Carey, Siren and the main character, Trevor (Huertas), on a singular night of “adventure, music and love.” With its coming-of-age theme, the show mixes Godzilla mythology, comic book lore, hints of “Spring Awakening” and cello music, according to one review, and is described as a charmer. Brandon Ivie directs the three-person cast for TheatreWorks.
