ABOUT THE SHOW
The Myth of the Mountain is a fable-esque coming-of-age story about triplets Mia, Mateo, and Mo who live cut off from the outside world in their own structured life after the disappearance of their parents. After a distant song similar to one their parents used to sing wakes Mo in the middle of the night, they set out to find their parents at the peak of a nearby mountain, forcing their siblings to follow and turning their rigid world upside down.
The Myth of the Mountain is an original musical with the surrealism of Lemony Snicket, the playfulness of Willy Wonka, and the wonder of Wes Anderson. It’s a 2-act quirky family-friendly dramedy that’ll make you belly laugh and then surprise you with tears through a captivating coming of age adventure story.
