While perhaps less of a musical, per se, and more of a cabaret, this show still manages to blend story and music (played by band Future Wife) in an incredibly affecting, personal way. By turns winning and almost gleeful while still dealing with painfully personal anecdotes about loneliness, the show manages to hit a lot of raw nerves without being gratuitous or manipulative. Instead, it's a strangely intimate but safely withheld performance bearing simple but truthful lyrics, dreamy music, and relatable stories about glimpses into our own mortality.
While the show ended its run a couple of months ago, you can (and should!) watch the entirety of the show through Joe's Pub's Livestream channel or in the video below:

Thanks so much for sharing this video. :) Young Jean Lee is really cool!
Isn't the whole thing awesome? How much do I love that Joe's Pub has streaming of a lot of their full shows? I remember missing seeing this in person and being so crushed... only to find it online.
Hope your summer is going well!
