Everybody rejoice! HIT THE LIGHTS! is a bold and moving contemporary pop-rap fairly tale. Perfect for adults and young people, this unique story chronicles an eccentric young woman’s search for her identity. Set to a vivid contemporary score ranging from rhythm and blues to rap, HIT THE LIGHTS! is a kaleidoscopic journey of discovery that crosses generational and racial barriers.
