About Octet:

Featuring a score for an a cappella chamber choir and an original libretto inspired by internet comment boards, scientific debates, religious texts, and Sufi poetry, Octet explores addiction and nihilism within the messy context of 21st century technology.

Our Octet Review

Review of Signature Theatre's Octet by Dave Malloy

Octet, the newest work by Dave Malloy (Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812, and Ghost Quartet) at the Pershing Square Signature Center is part chorale, part drama, part magic. It transcends form, creating a new, pertinent, relevant, humorous, and relatable way of storytelling.
