GLASS TOWN


A Rock Requiem

March 10-12, 17-19, and 24-26 at 7:00 PM
Streaming on Cybertank March 19 at 7:00 PM

A rock requiem starring the Brontë siblings -- Anne, most feminist and most faithful, a neosoul star; Emily, melancholy alt-rock prodigy; Branwell, full of the blues; and Charlotte, fiery frontwoman, desperate for recognition and love. A staged concept album that defies traditional musical theatre, Glass Town explores familial bonds, grief, and isolation, using the literary family as archetypal touchstones.
