SUMMARY:Behind the Mask: Musical
DESCRIPTION:Be a part of a world premiere for this new musical\, written and composed by local Redding talent. Set in the hauntingly beautiful Bayou\, “Behind The Mask” tells a captivating tale of mystery\, jealousy\, love\, and resilience. Yvonne Sonnier\, driven by jealousy\, turns to a bayou witch doctor to switch bodies with her sister\, leading to chaos and unexpected lessons. This dark fairy tale\, filled with bayou magic and colorful characters\, invites us to look beyond appearances in an unforgettable journey. \nAbout the creators:\nLisa Collins has spent decades doing the work: acting\, directing\, writing\, and producing across the Bay Area and Northern California. She and her husband and co-writer Bill Collins spent years building Keyhole Mystery Theatre\, writing and performing original musical comedy and interactive murder mysteries throughout Northern California. \nBehind the Mask is their most ambitious project yet: a full-length musical they developed together\, with original compositions by Bill Reuss. It is\, in every sense\, a labor of love brought to life by people who live and create in this community.
