Original Stage Musical
She fell from a star. She learned what love sounds like from a child who had never heard music. Starfall is an original Broadway musical about a celestial being named Lyra who falls to Earth and must learn to be human within a single year or lose the ability to return to her realm. Her guide is an eight-year-old girl named Iris who is profoundly deaf and experiences music through vibration and light rather than sound — which transforms Lyra's entire understanding of what her voice actually is. The musical has fifteen original songs spanning from Lyra's celestial arias to Iris's vibration-pieces (performed with the full orchestra visible and conducted through lighting cues synchronized to the beat). The central love story is between Lyra and Finn, a human musician who is grieving the loss of his ability to hear following an accident, who falls in love with someone who cannot explain why sound matters and accidentally teaches him to hear differently. Runtime: 2h 45min. Act One Highlights 'The Fall' (Lyra descending — the musical's opening number, pure voice over minimal orchestration). 'What Is This?' (Lyra encountering Earth's sensory world). 'Iris Speaks' (the first Iris-Lyra duet, performed in ASL and song simultaneously). Act Two Highlights 'The Year Is Almost Gone' (the show's emotional center — Lyra understanding what staying would cost). 'One More Sound' (Finn and Lyra's Act Two duet). 'Starfall (Reprise)' (the finale, the full company, the theatre dark except for starlight).
