UNPACKING
A NEW TRUE VISUAL SONG CYCLE
Songs by David Brush and Rachel Dean
Photography by Abigail Harris
LIVING. GRIEVING. RENEWING.
From the award-winning songwriting team of Dean and Brush (The Anxiety Project) and featuring the stunning photography of Abigail Harris comes a new TRUE visual song cycle rooted in the aftermath of the writers’ own personal climbs over the last few years - from lockdown to illness to death to grief to renewal in a modern age. In true song-cycle form - this show is best served with no set (other than the provided photography projections), a simple band and a cast of any size - a perfect fundraiser or cabaret/concert addition to your season. Featuring cut songs, trunk songs, and newly written songs - this original song cycle is a one-act stage adaptation of the YouTube/Instagram visual album of the same name and comes with projectable versions of the original photography. Unpacking explores who we all were and who we now are after the world fell apart and how in unpacking both our trauma and our triumph, we make way for something new.
