A spokesperson describes the event as follows:
“...Pragma, a young woman navigating her first relationship, suspects her girlfriend Ludus—distant and not exactly the picture of empathy—might be cheating on her. Determined to uncover the truth, Pragma decides to follow Ludus one night. Her pursuit leads her to LOVE’S CONCORDIA BAR, a mysterious burlesque club owned and operated by Love itself. The bar has only one rule for entry—there’s no age limit, but you must be in Love to step inside.
But are Pragma and Ludus truly in Love?
Amid dazzling, sultry musical numbers, Pragma and Ludus encounter a colorful cast of eccentric and endearing characters, each with unique lessons about the nature of Love. As the young couple navigates the bar’s whimsical and thought-provoking world, they must confront their feelings and ask themselves if their connection meets Love’s high standards—or if they’ll be shown the door.
The concept for the production originated from a simple yet profound question posed to forty people: “What is romantic love?” From their responses, nine characters emerged—each embodying a different, archetypal take on what it means to love and be loved..."
