Heck Above Deck
An Original Musical
“We set sail for adventure, or close facsimile…”
On November 4 & 5, 2016 at the Indianapolis Museum of Art, Know No Stranger debuted the original musical Heck Above Deck!
The Apogee’s Kiss hawks artificial adventure to the well-to-do of seven star systems. These simulations must be pretty convincing, because when actual infamous space pirate Barsha Bhatt actually commandeers the ship, the passengers are no less than tickled pink to “play along.”
But below deck, the staff aren’t so easily fooled: They know this ain’t theatre. And if they can just keep their heads down, keep their mouths shut… maybe they’ll survive?
Leave it to Heck Hopkin, the ever-smilin’, always-singin’ linen boy, to screw it all up for everybody.
Aliens! Monsters! Song, dance, and fresh linens! KNS brought its A-game for this rollicking revue about revenge, redemption, and space goats.
