A new iteration of a one-act musical incorporates local stories to address the experiences of caretaking, illness, and mortality. Audience members participate in a sing-along score and are seated in-the-round alongside the show’s cast and musicians. Written by the musical’s original creators, Daniel Lazour and Patrick Lazour, and directed by Taibi Magar, the newly revised work is performed at PTC and at caregiving sites around Philadelphia.
