Synopsis
This offbeat musical by the composer of Little Shop of Horrors and the Disney films Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid is two one-act musicals of speculative fiction.
The first, The Girl Who Was Plugged In , is about a homeless woman whose soul is transplanted into the body of a gorgeous female android by a company which manufactures celebrities.
The second, Her Pilgrim Soul , is about a scientist who researches holographic imaging.
One day a mysterious “living” holograph, apparently a woman long dead, appears and changes his life forever.
Press Reviews
"Her Pilgrim Soul is so cunningly written and musicalized with such emotional sincerity, I dare any proponent of new age philosophy to resist it."
