A student written and performed musical journey, exploring what happens when two young people try to escape reality. Evan and Rachel are sick of it all. Sick of the pandemic. Sick of masks. Sick of restrictions. Sick of family and no travel. They decide - enough. They're going to get in the car and just go. Where? Who knows, but they're going to drive until they escape 2020-2021. What happens next is a fantastical journey into past and future, fantasy and reality, relationships and whimsy. Come join Odessa College's first return to LIVE theatre in 2021 with our student devised and performed production! Seats are limited to a 25% house and masks are REQUIRED.
