THEATRE
It’s the rest of the World that looks so small
A THEATRICAL REVUE OF JONATHAN COULTON
February 2018
WORLD PREMIERE
Who better channels the Flying V spirit than Jonathan Coulton, the singer/songwriter and cult sensation known for clever, engaging songs that illuminate our most intimate struggles through both humor and the fantastic? This original show explores the loneliness and longing of life through movement, puppetry, and a curated collection of songs from across Coulton’s career – featuring original arrangements performed by a live band! What if our lives are constellations, our brightest moments connecting across empty space? How do we fit into a world so vast and yet so small? Join ex-planets, lonely sea monsters, a lovable team of curlers, and more as Flying V explores what it means to be human in a vast world of possibility.
Conceived and Directed by Jason Schlafstein* and Vaughn Irving*
Music Direction and Original Arrangements by Steve Przybylski* with Jon Jon Johnson*
Original Music by Jonathan Coulton
