Welcome to Dr. Carlisle’s weekly therapy session. Assisted by Nurse Margot, you will be joining Adam fighting addiction, bulimic nervosa Bryan, Kendra suffering from bi-polar disorder, and schizophrenic Melinda. Yes, this is where the broken people go, and you have a front-row seat in J. Glachetti’s RELAPSE: A New Musical. At times the therapy session may become a little crowded with the voices in their heads running rampant on stage.

RELAPSE is a must see. Giachetti’s clever lyrics are laden with sophisticated humor, as well as poignant reality. Louis Josephson’s music, along with tight direction and creative choreography from Joey McKneely, keep the action at a lively pace. And good luck trying to find a mediocre voice among this amazing energetic cast. No can do. RELAPSE oozes talent, innovation, inspiration, and just out-and-out entertainment. Depression has never been such fun!
