Futurity is a charming (yet ultimately tragic) musical focusing on all of the following topics and/or ideas: The Civil War, mathematics, philosophy, science, technology & imagination. I was fortunate enough to catch its first run back in January at The Zipper Factory. Last night marked Futurity‘s Joe’s Pub debut (you still have three more chances to catch the show before the end of May) and it was equally as glorious if not more so! Only The Lisps could put together something so endearing, amusing & affective with such inexplicable grace. And that’s why I love them. Visit The Lisps at their official MySpace page. Read my extensive Futurity based interview with each of The Lisps here.
