MTFestUK 2026 - Shining in Misery: A King-Size Parody

Music by Andrew Abrams Book & Lyric by Mark-Eugene Garcia Book by Colleen DuVall Direction by Gary Lloyd Experience a musical parody of King-size proportions! During the Misery of a blizzard, five people are drawn to the Shining lights of the Overlook Hotel. This includes Jack, the hotel?s new caretaker, Wendy, his unhappy wife, Danny, their clairvoyant son, Annie, a volatile nurse, and Paul, the mysterious unconscious man she drags up to room 217. As the storm grows so do the mysteries of the hotel, and the guests sing and vocalize while hacking an onslaught of visitors ? human, animal, and supernatural. Will this group be able to harmonize through IT, take a Stand, or fade into The Mist? All performances as part of MTFestUK 2026 will be presented in an abridged workshop format, with scripts in hand.
