Blackout Theatre is pleased to present their first original musical—a rock musical that’s a love story, a story of rebellion and a cautionary look into our own future…
The world of F8 isn’t so very different from our own. In the near future F8, a visionary technology and lifestyle company, completely runs the lives of those who live within the company’s borders. F8 tells you where to work, what to eat, and most importantly, who to love, all controlled through a discreet monitoring device implanted into the bodies of the citizens.
Everyone in F8 is content except Paige, who senses that she is different. Paige yearns for choices and impulsivity. When she meets a stranger from outside F8, a woman named Parker, everything becomes very complicated. Her perfect life disrupted by potential personified in a stranger, Paige becomes aware of the true nature of F8 and the risks involved in betraying the system.
F8 features a live band under the direction of Chris Walsh with Ryan Sciarrotta and Mickey Sanchez from the band Shoulder Voices and Fernanado Moore of The Great Depression. Other guest artists include Amanda Machon, Nathan Simpson, Rachel Shapiro and choreographer Kirsten Lopez.
