Somewhere between a pop concert and a physics lecture - this unique musical recounts the extraordinary events of the last day on earth for a 22 year old genius named Norman Copernicus Cooper.
Despite his dreams of becoming a world famous astro-physicist, Norman
finds himself suffocating in a dead end job filling eyeglass prescriptions
for a company called "SuperVision" - where he is covertly doing his own optical
research. |
||
Throughout the day he is hounded by his bosses, tormented by co-workers, haunted by the past and consumed with an obsession for the receptionist - Destiny. Tripped off by a confrontation with a supervisor, Norman loses it and holds everyone hostage at gun-point. The crowds, the news media and the trigger-happy state troopers arrive. At the final moment , Destiny has a burst of inspiration about Norman's experimental eyeglasses, and the two of them are propelled out of the office into a groovy new dimension of love! |
