ABOUT
We're just tiny pieces of an infinite universe.
This as yet untitled KUSAMA project is a response to the work of Japanese artist, Yayoi Kusama, filtered through the lives and experiences of writers Yuriko Shibata and Andrew Strano.
A recipient of a Frank Young Fund for New Musicals' 2024/2025 Writer's Residency Grant, awarded by NAMT (the National Alliance for Musical Theatre), this musical was originally developed by Theatre Now New York, and had its first reading in June, 2025.
