Echo: a musical monologue
Synopsis:
A new musical comedy inspired by the Greek myth of Echo, a nymph who was cursed to only repeat the words of other people.
This contemporary feminist play with music reimagines Echo as a singer-songwriter who, just after being offered a record deal, is cursed by a an older rival to only perform covers. As her creative identity (and chance at musical stardom!) slips away, she must break the enchantment and reclaim her voice before it’s too late.
Echo explores the silencing of women's voices, society pitting women against each other, and what it means to find your creative voice.
