A musical comedy about music and its unique ability to affect, challenge and enhance our lives.

It's an all singing, all dancing, all clowning, one person, musical comedy with songs and music about music and it's weirdness, difficulty and extraordinary ability to affect us in every part of our lives. Music is part of every part of our lives, every celebration part, every ritual part, every significant part, insignificant part and public event... part. With some careful
calculations, it is hoped that, music will soon take over our entire lives. As of 2026 its demands are that we don't let a moment pass without noticing it and dance a little, at least... or if we are going to have a bad time then we should bring music along so that it could be the sound track to enhance our misery. If music could speak I think it would say, "I'm here for you buddy, whether you're happy, sad, angry or hallucinating. Whatever it is that's going on, I can enhance it and help you truly feel everything that you need to feel, so press play and lets get on with it." I mean... it's not a direct quote... don't go harming the messenger... I'm not even the messenger, I'm just making this shit up... and when it comes down to it... music just wants you to get down to it... so get down to this show.
