This November, our 7-12th graders are thrilled to bring you String — a heartfelt and hilarious new musical by Adam Gwon!
When the ancient Greek Fates are banished from Mount Olympus and forced to work in a modern-day office building, their immortal world collides with the chaos of human emotion. String weaves myth and modern life together into a touching, witty, and magical story about love, fate, and what it means to take control of your own destiny.
Filled with clever humor, moving songs, and unforgettable characters, String is a show that will make you laugh, reflect, and feel the beauty of being part of the shared human tapestry that connects us all.
🎶 Don’t miss this beautiful, one-of-a-kind musical experience.
