Come on the journey of the first-ever live performances of Bound! The Musical
Bound! The Musical is a joyful, character-driven musical with a heartwarming journey story of self-improvement, community, and transformation. It’s an ensemble show filled with witty dialogue, catchy songs, and plenty of laughs. You’ll enjoy comical mix-ups and disguises; all while being inspired by themes of overcoming inner struggles and external chaos. We promise an evening of fun, inspiration, and a cathartic, feel-good ending!
The “In Concert” performance will feature:
-
The entire story; fully cast
-
All 16 songs, with full vocal arrangements and piano accompaniment
-
Basic choreography, lighting, costumes and props; no sets
We will be seeking audience feedback through talkback sessions and a brief online survey.
This is the final step before we launch the full production!
