The hit Off-Broadway musical Invisible Thread reworked
Witness Uganda premiered Off-Broadway in 2015 under the title of Invisible Thread, and now it makes its West Coast premiere in a newly revised version, boasting additional songs and a reworked story.
Billed as a 'documentary musical', this show is the creation of Matt Gould and Griffin Matthews, and is based on Matthews' own experiences as an aid worker. The story follows a man who is rejected from his church for being gay. Still determined to make a difference to the world, he travels to a remote African village, but finds his preconceptions of life ad the people there upended. Part rallying cry for change and part African beats-inflected Broadway show, Witness Uganda is a new show not to be missed.
