"Music for a High Ceiling"
by Mat Smart
directed by Steve Cosson
Is a part of
SLANT THEATRE PROJECT'S
"COUCHWORKS"
"By far, the most fully realized play is 'Music for a High Ceiling,' staged with panache and attention to detail by Steve Cosson, the artistic director of the Civilians. Starting with what could have been dry subject matter - a short history of the theremin and the trumpet, written by Mat Smart - the musical one-act spins what are essentially interesting encyclopedia entries into a fantastical meditation on the seduction of music.
