Description
The Lights Went Out Because of a Problem is a found opera about learning to sing. It is also about nothing, goofing off, meditating, hanging out, healing from trauma, and the pandemic. Featuring music composed by Allison Clendaniel with the libretto found, arranged, and written by Lola B. Pierson, The Lights Went Out Because of a Problem is The Acme Corporation's first show since their pandemic piece, a play in a box called The Institute for Counterfeit Memory. This culmination of 3 years of slow and steady work is going to be a weird one you won't want to miss.
Directed by Jarod Hanson and Lola B. Pierson
Music by Allison Clendaniel
Libretto found, arranged, and written by Lola B. Pierson
Featuring Alix Fenhagen, Britt Olsen-Ecker, Hailey Withrow, Heather Morrison, Julia Creutzer, Kaya Vision, Megan Livingston, Meghan Stanton, and Molly Margulies
