THE MUSICAL THEATER CLASS PRESENTS
Created by the team that brought you "[title of show]," "Now. Here. This." is a new musical tackling life's big questions with inimitable humor and humanity. The show follows the evolution and adventures of four friends in a natural history museum as they journey through time--from the present-day museum, to the past, and back again. Inspired by various exhibits (bees, reptiles, early man, ancient civilizations and outer space), the foursome share their stories about friendship, hoarding, hiding, laughing, living, dying, and middle school in an attempt to step directly into that elusive present moment...into the "Now. Here. This."
Due to limited seating reserve a ticket here!
