Driving in Circles: a new musical by Jay Eddy Driving in Circles is a solo-ish new work that traverses the highway between confessional monologue, stand-up comedy, and rock concert. Set to a sometimes whispering, sometimes screaming folktronica score, Driving traces the aftermath of intimate violence—mapping our hero’s darkly funny, deeply felt, defiantly hopeful journey through the bodymind-altering landscapes of trauma towards something like happiness. Featuring Jay Eddy*, Zach Fontanez, and Jordan Palmer. An exciting new show featuring the talents of collaborators from two of last season’s productions, Eat Your Young and Alligator-a-Phobia in 3D! Curious about what Driving in Circles sounds like? Listen to “Dog Days!” Stage Manager: Fanni Horváth*, Scenic Design: Danielle DelaFuente, Lighting Design: Kevin Fulton, Costume Design: Eric Tran, Projection Design: Maria Servellon, Sound Design: Gage Baker, Voice/Text Coach: Ashleigh Reade “Eddy has undeniable stage presence and a startlingly elastic voice, able to coo and screech, howl and sing.” —The New Haven Independent *Appearing through an Agreement between Boston Playwrights’ Theatre and Actors’ Equity Association, the Union of Professional Actors and Stage Managers in the United States.
