The musical is “Fly By Night”, written and composed by Kim Rosenstock, Michael Mitnick, and Will Connolly. “Fly by Night” is a dark fantasy comedy rock musical (a mouthful, I know) following the story of two sisters who move to New York City. It is a story about an actress, a waitress, a sandwich maker, and a fortune teller and how their lives collide and change in a magical whirlwind of self-discovery, heartbreak, and the journey towards “home.” It beautifully depicts the human desire to connect with one another and find fulfillment in life. These characters portray humanity on such a raw level that you cannot help but fall in love and connect with them.
Our fabulous cast of actors and musicians includes Ellie Barbuto, Benjamin Bell, Noah Benson, Jeremy Buxton, Graham Buyagawan, Sawyer Buyagawan, Jonathan Carollo, Marin Donohue, and Ceara Roderick, Jacob Terp, and creative team Emelia Corazza, Shanon Keehn, Kendelyn Thomas and director Abigail Torres.
Performances run from January 24th-February 2nd at Bridgetown Conservatory’s Black Box Theatre in Portland, OR.
We are Tapestry Theater Collective. TTC is a group of theatre makers in Portland, OR embarking on a journey as we self-produce our first musical with the hopes of someday establishing a company. We came together out of a love for weaving stories and creating together. We have a wide and diverse range of unique skills. Our team includes an award-winning Director and Stage Manager as well as talent in set design, music direction and skills in fundraising and networking. We make a strong team. We share the same artistic values and integrity when it comes to our work and simply put, we love creating purposeful work together.
Our mission is to “share stories that highlight the beautiful intricacies of human connection.” We live, love, and grow creating our own stories and connecting with the stories of others, weaving, shaping and changing as life goes on. Some paths cross temporarily, while others are woven with us for our entire lives. This culmination of paths and stories is a beautiful work of art.
