POSTPONED: The Optimist - Inspired by the lyrics of Jimi Hendrix
The Optimist is a new full-length play by Seattle playwright Stacy D. Flood inspired by the lyrics of Jimi Hendrix.
The story follows protagonist, Jesse, on a journey to overcome monsters, perceived or otherwise, through space and seas and heavens. Throughout the adventure, each setback and success forces Jesse to examine the nature of triumph, what victory really means, whether such is ever absolute, and how to come to ultimately come to a peace and discovery through each step of the journey.
Along with the performance of the new theatrical work, Seattle musicians will play short sets at each performance, showcasing their interpretations of some of the Hendrix songs that served as inspiration for the play. Confirmed artists include hip hop producer Martín, vocalist Tuesday and guitarist Justin S Davis.
