"get ready to believe in…"
In this rock-n-roll musical adventure story, a father and his daughter travel through experiences of time, mortality, death and love while navigating extreme and unexpected turns along the way. Merging humor, irony, and kick-ass ensemble vocals, Exit Sign celebrates both the greatness and absurdity of our humanity.
While casually watching TV our father and daughter are suddenly summoned by an intriguing force from within their own television screen. They have been chosen to find the ever elusive and proverbial "IT" and bring "It" back to save human kind from the perils of itself. Their travels take an unforseen turn when the father is fated to take a solo detour at the Exit Sign (He dies). The journey continues as they both find ways to deal with this severe and sudden change in plans as it transforms them both in surprising ways.
Full show premieres June 5-7 @ Mama Calizo’s Voice Factory www.voicefactorysf.org
