Synopsis

This two-part, two-person rock musical was a long-running, award-winning hit off-Broadway.

Acclaimed by New York critics as the freshest musical since HAIR , it is a sad and funny spoof of computerized claustrophobia in a world where one mechanical breakdown can end it all.

In the first act, Isaac and Ingrid are trapped in an elevator.

They talk, make a fumbling try at sex and depart.

In the second act, Isaac is in jail with a television that sends and receives pictures.

Alice is in the next cell.

Though Isaac and Alice can only see each other through their television screens, they try to communicate.

NOTICE: Please be advised, this title is from the Samuel French Vault and is made from a scan of an archived manuscript.

We hope you’ll treasure this glimpse into theatre history.
