“Melodramatic, witty, inventive and downright intoxicating. I was not fully prepared for the sheer genius that is FUTURITY.” —Music Slut
As the Civil War rages around them, Union soldier Julian Munro and Lord Byron’s brilliant daughter, Ada Lovelace, attempt to invent an omnipotent steam-powered brain designed to save humanity before it destroys itself. Featuring up-and-coming Brooklyn indierockers the Lisps, this quirky new piece melds traditional Americana, Brechtian choral elements, and avant-rock, resulting in a unique and compelling portrait of war, human imagination, and technological hubris. FUTURITY come to the Walker straight from coproducer American Repertory Theater’s six-week run in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
