Flies on What-If Island

An autism diagnosis, a crippling breakup, and an apartment alone to do nothing but think. What could go wrong?

From the duo behind A Class Act (2016) and Play Nice (2017), Flies on What-If Island examines the buzzing doubts we try to brush away to hold onto our serene shores. Feeling like her brain is fundamentally faulty, Ilana Charnelle has found herself washed up with the wreckage of her relationship and her neurotypical life. Through an hour of original songs alongside musical director Ned Dixon, Ilana questions how long we can live in fantasy before it all crumbles, what happens when you've been looking for answers in the wrong places, and how to love our broken parts.
