Musical


SYNOPSIS:

NIGHT SIDE SONGS is about the small human connections that make up the vast tapestry of our lives. Inspired by Susan Sontag’s insight that “illness is the night side of life,” this transformative new musical brings us together to explore how song heals us and empowers our spirits. NIGHT SIDE SONGS amplifies the voices of those who navigate the complexities of health—patients, caregivers, and medical professionals alike. What emerges is a moving portrait of how we show up for one another. How love can be the most powerful medicine. NIGHT SIDE SONGS reminds us of the strength we find in community, and the healing that happens when we truly listen.
