Echolocation
Book and Lyrics by Sam Norman, Music by Eliza Randall, Developed with Alie B. Gorrie
A road trip musical in the dark. A teenage love story without a map.
Echolocation is a one-of-a-kind show: a musical designed to be performed in pitch blackness.
Teenage best friends Ethan and Sadie are polar opposites – he’s a street-smart athlete who grew up inches above the poverty line, she’s a blind intellectual who’s sick of her overprotective family. When a DNA test reveals that Ethan’s long-lost father is alive, it’s a chance for him to chase the family he’s never met and for her to escape the parents who never let her go. And so the secret road trip begins.

What’s an audio-only musical? How can they be creatively exciting and widely accessible? Some thoughts here.
