“If I go, will you go too?
Will you follow me?
Will you promise me?”
FROM THE CELEBRATED AUTHOR OF Natasha, Pierre, and the Great Comet
of 1812 comes a hauntingly original new musical about the search for human
connection in the digital age. Featuring rich harmonies and intricate vocal
arrangements, Octet finds compelling human drama in our middle-of-the-night
anxieties about the impact of technology on the nature of our relationships.
The HVS production is the first to follow the original Off-Broadway version,
which won the 2020 Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding New Musical.
