When the icebergs have melted and all that’s left is a Venice-like earth, a ragtag riverboat cabaret continues their work, entertaining the masses as they drift past the group’s failing ship, the Knossos. But the show has a secret below deck, a monster half bull and half human that wanders the labyrinthian cargo hold.
The Broken Planetarium, in its newest cabaret musical, asks you, like Theseus in the labyrinth, what is the thread we hold on to when we must find our way through dark times?
