As Erik (Houdini) strives for the top, his pernicious obsession to prove that ordinary people can do extraordinary things grows exponentially to the point where danger is no longer just an illusion. Although every sign uproariously warns him to reconsider his decisions in life, his desideratum to become “someone” outgrows him. When he has his last chance to restore everything, he realizes that his mission must be to set an example of passion, self-belief, discipline and to continue his life-long commitment. Erik tenaciously continues his path and accepts his fate that although people will possibly remember him as the greatest, he let the most important thing disappear around him: life.

The Library of Alexandria, Egypt. 415 C.E. Society is on the brink. A rising tide of religious fundamentalism threatens to wipe out the wisdom of classical antiquity. But one woman vows to save the knowledge of our ancestors no matter the cost. Inspired by the missing pages of history, Hypatia and the Heathens is an interactive tragicomic musical about the absurdity of power, lots and lots of scrolls, and the toll of tales untold.
