An Original Musical Like You've Never Seen

Every cosmic year, the planets meet to share the secrets of the universe. Earth, now brimming with intelligent life, shares the fragile beauty of human art and expression, inspiring the celestial bodies to explore artistic connection. As the pain woven into human creation causes Earth to fade, the planets are forced to grapple with the paradox of creation and destruction that could heal their discord or deepen it forever.

A FUSION OF IMPROV & SCRIPTED THEATER

Toothy’s Treasure is the musical adventure of a pirate crew pursuing their deceased captain’s riches, led by the heroism of their new rookie. When this "perfect protagonist" abruptly dies in the first scene, the crew seeks audience members with “main-character energy” to help guide their way to the treasure. We later find things aren't as they seem and the hero all pirates strive to become, Captain Toothy, might not be as heroic as they thought.
