Valley Of Light

Valley of light is a musical unlike any other I have experienced. This brilliantly written show offers a unique perspective on a coming of age story/ hero’s journey.

This is the quintessential show for fringe fest; the music is a clear highlight as one of, if not the best new musical score at Hollywood Fringe.

This show was a pleasure to see- it deals with themes which feel raw and relatable in a way that is fresh. It confidently marries multiple plot lines, drawing connections between the characters that may be otherwise overlooked by the audience and making the audience members find those characteristics within themselves. I appreciated the humorous and romantic aspects of the musical, and thought that the performers all brought passion into the story. I loved the sound design and music as well- it felt very immersive and engaging! I loved Willow's character and found Michaela to be a very talented and emotionally emphatic singer, and thought that the storyline between Willow and Amber was one of the most engaging.
