Hyperbole: Epiphany


If you're based in the Los Angeles area, check out Hyperbole: Epiphany, a theatrical production that runs from August 12 - September 3 at Son of Semele in Silverlake. The show comprises of short vignettes set to original music, exploring "life’s ordinary moments of birth, adolescence, death, love, faith and chaos in extraordinary ways. The stories of epiphany are brought to life with music, stylized movement, digital video, theatrical effects and the use of over fifty puppets and masks". Sounds interesting, no?

Also, according to the show description, "the music serves to score each storyline and drive the plot of each mini-play". One of these segments will use Heaven is a Dark Place, a song from The Hungry Ghost CD. Needless to say, I'm curious to see what they do with it.
