A Kind of Odyssey

A modern musical in molto bad-ass

X has lost his core. He doesn't really know what his core is, but he knows he's lost it and that he really needs one. Without being aware of it, he's standing on the threshold of an epic quest to his identity. But the harder X searches, the further away he seems to get from his core - and from who he once was. X tries to hold on: but how are you supposed to look for something, when don't know what it is you're looking for?
