By drawing on the familiar stories of Greek mythology, SIREN comments on todays society, inspiring important conversations about what it means to remain apolitical, what role we play in changing the world, and the importance of listening and understanding each other. A hopefully-dystopian musical, SIREN takes place in an alternate version of 2026. A charismatic leader with a predilection for ancient Greek society and mythology has been elected to the American presidential office, and as he attempts to draft a new constitution, it quickly becomes apparent that his ideology is dangerously close to fascism. Brent, a recent college graduate living in Washington, D.C., chooses ignorant bliss despite warnings from Adeline, a brilliant journalist and Brents closest friend. But when Brent is drafted to fill a particularly violent role within this new government, he's forced to come to terms with all sides of himselfhis moral boundaries, identity, and contributions to a system that is more dangerous than it looks. SIREN is an original musical written by Boston Conservatory at Berklees Nina Osso (B.F.A. 2024). Timely, fresh, and thoroughly original, SIREN is a unique opportunity to put a new generations voice onstage. In this day and age, the importance of new work and new stories cannot be understated. Presented by Berklee student club Newground, SIREN currently involves 50 Boston Conservatory and Berklee College of Music students between its cast, creative team, and orchestra, all of whom are working to bring a story thats never been told before to the wider Boston community.
