What do you do when you see the world unraveling before your eyes? From the creators of Tear Down This Wall and Sirens of Coos Bay, The Broken Planetarium presents a new cabaret musical Live! Prophets! Live! based on the myth of Cassandra, the ancient Greek prophet who could not be believed, and the real-life story of Eunice Newton Foote, the 19th century scientist who first discovered putting carbon in the atmosphere causes climate change. Taking place at an underworld roadhouse, this new musical is narrated by a series of increasingly-pissed off femme prophets throughout the millennia, from Hildegard Von Bingen to Chicken Little. The show takes on the glaringly present subjects of ecological catastrophe and our need to center the voices and lives of those on the frontlines of the crisis. With writer Laura Christina Dunns poetry and humor, Corrine Gauchers quirky and fierce directorial vision, a diverse song playlist from a gaggle of local Portland musicians, the Broken Planetariums new musical takes on the end of the the end of the world with sequined bravery and their own brand of hilarious, scrappy hope.
