Dead as a Dodo
Wakka Wakka / from Norway & USA
An uplifting musical odyssey into the heart of friendship (and the underworld) with your tour guides: an extinct dodo and a skeleton boy.
Deep within the underworld, a skeleton Dodo and boy dig daily for fresh bones to replace their deteriorating ones, desperately trying to keep from disappearing. But one day, the Dodo miraculously sprouts feathers–and everything changes.
The transformation sends the two friends into a chaotic journey as they flee the wrath of the Skeleton King and fight to stay together as they are drawn into the heart of an epic battle between life and death.
From Wakka Wakka, Dead as a Dodo is an inspirational musical odyssey about true friendship and the will to survive against all odds. Together, the impossible can become the possible.

“It is among the most ceaselessly inventive pieces of theater I have seen in the past year. … morbidly poetic …immerses the audience in a fantastical universe”
— The New York Times
“An overall experience that feels like a well-rehearsed symphony. The writing is funny as hell…One eye-popping scene follows another, and the show’s 80 minutes fly by.”
