NY THEATRE FEST NOMINATION BEST MUSICAL SCORE
"THIS SHOW CAN GO PLACES."
- LOCAL THEATRE NY
"I'LL BE KEEPING MY EYES OUT FOR
SIMON RIKER, EMERSON SIEVERTS,
AND ME PROMETHEUS."
- THE TIMES SQUARE CHRONICLES
FIRE.
For ages, humans have wondered: who the heck discovered it, anyway?
Now, thanks to ME PROMETHEUS, we finally have the answer.
When an ice age threatens to turn their tropical paradise into a frozen hellscape, Herbert (an "inventor" still waiting for his first original thought) and Clarissa (a priestess with an inconvenient gift for critical thinking) pair up in pursuit of a highly flammable new technology that just might save the world.
They've got clashing worldviews, unresolved feelings, and absolutely no idea what they're doing.
What could possibly go wrong?
(Everything.)
