LOST, A Pop Chamber Opera

LOST- A Pop Chamber Opera. The fairy tale of Hansel and Gretel meets the even grimmer and more fantastical imagination of Kirk Wood Bromley in this enchanting new music theater creation. The late composer Jessica Grace Wing's haunting, classically flavored music combined with Bromley's Joycean word-tossing is a treat for the theatergoer that is looking for something unique and perfect for the Fall season. Winner of numerous awards and great reviews, LOST was a hit at the New York Fringe Festival, winning the coveted BEST MUSICAL award. Please note that LOST contains certain language and references that might be considered scary to some children. This production features life-size puppets, a cast of 13 performers, and a full musical orchestra. LOST will play five performances only, opening on Halloween.

LOST is the story of Hanlon and Gabby, two teenage siblings abandoned by their father in the Great Smokey Mountains. Stumbling upon a cabin, they are whisked into the world of Mamba, a witch who harvests the organs of children to keep herself alive and young.

Enslaved, Gabby and Hanlon face off with Laborious (Mamba's evil scientist husband), zombie children from 400 years of American History, axe-wielding hoodoos (real ghosts of the Appalachian region), and the vagaries of young love.

Mamba and Laborious prepare for the body-theft of Hanlon's brain and Gabby's womb, but the mysterious appearance of a white fawn changes everything
