Now. Here. This.
The Umbrella Stage Company is thrilled to announce its upcoming production of “Now. Here. This.” – a musical jaunt that explores humor, heart, and self-discovery. Set against the backdrop of cosmic adventures, four friends share stories about identity, laughter, living, and middle school, all while attempting to step directly into the elusive “present moment.” Hailed by The New York Times as “a blend of good humor and good feeling with an audience-embracing brio that never flags” this new show comes from the creative minds behind “[title of show]”. More than just a musical, it’s a celebration of life, love, connection, and the boundless potential of the human spirit.
