Experience the wonder that is their blog at: http://thatgayagendaband.wordpress.com! Schedule: Sep 27th, 11:00 pm at 45th Street Theater |

Prozak and the Platypus CD Release PartyBook and lyrics by Elise ThoronMusic by Jill Sobule With no one else to turn to after a family tragedy, a tormented teen confides in the animals in her father’s neuroscience laboratory—and one night an animal talks back! As her unexpected spirit guide steers her deeper into treacherous emotional waters and her father tries to pull her back, the young woman wonders—am I healing? or am I dreaming? Or are we all? Experience the story as a live musical graphic novel featuring music by acclaimed singer-songwriter Jill Sobule, narration by critically-lauded monologist/musician David Cale and the illustrations of artist Kelly Hanrahan. Special appearances by Broadway’s Manu Narayan and Off-Broadway’s Rebecca Hart (Dead City). Schedule: Oct 2nd, 8:00 pm at The Zipper Factory Theater |
