In Out of My Head, five 20-something strangers bare their hearts and souls as they journey through their lives, loves, and losses during a pair of free group therapy sessions. From the moment of their breakdowns to their ultimate breakthroughs, the smart and emotional interplay of these quirky characters brings them all the self-discovery to set aside their insecurities and face the world anew—a little less frightened and a little more brave than before. This fresh and contemporary chamber musical celebrates the amazing strength of the human spirit. Backstage calls it “witty and provocative.”
