Synopsis
From three-time Tony Award nominee Dave Malloy (Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812, Ghost Quartet) comes his latest off-Broadway sensation, Octet—directed by Chris Abraham.
In a tech-obsessed support group, eight internet addicts grapple with everything from doomscrolling to Candy Crush to conspiracy theories.
Blending razor-sharp contemporary critique with haunting choral harmonies, Octet offers a hilarious, intimate, and deeply moving exploration of human connection in the digital age. (crowstheatre.com)
