Determined to strike out on an adventure and overhaul her life, Samantha must deflect her mother's warnings amid her mid-life soul searching, and battle a troupe of monsters: Apathy, Fear and Body. Full panic sets in as the monsters take Samantha on a wild ride through her psyche, and a youthful Birthday Singer arrives unannounced, challenging Samantha to banish her demons and live out her dreams. Charged with energetic music and side-splitting lyrics, MONSTERS is a story that captures the universal humor, insight and agony spurred by life’s milestones. In the end, MONSTERS asks: Have you faced your demons? We can’t necessarily destroy them, but we can laugh at them. As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “My giant follows me wherever I go.” Indeed.
