A mysterious and tragic tale, Lyric is Waiting explores Ned and Lyric's struggle to understand a passion that will either lead to salvation or untimely destruction. Along this dream-like journey the young lovers weather mental illness, shame, food issues, a sexy Librarian, Bigfoot and an unnatural obsession with a Nirvana song. Michael Puzzo's Lyric is Waiting is a fast paced, darkly comic drama that explores the question, "When we play the hero, who are we really saving?" The New York Times called Lyric is Waiting "an odd, effective play"
