SYNOPSIS:
When opportunity knocks, do you stay true to those who groomed you? Or soar solo, like every other shooting star?
IN THE POCKET is a musical play set during a time when rhythm and poetry flowed through the veins of Hotlanta. When Nomadic, a fiery but untrained vocalist, saunters into the rehearsal of the city’s hottest band, it’s not just her sultry voice and overly confident veneer that changes this talented group of musicians. She ignites a spark within the band and her arrival challenges the very foundations of their relationships and dreams.
Themes of ambition, loyalty, passion, the price of success, and the bonds that music can create—and destroy are explored in this new work. Against the backdrop of Atlanta's late 90's neo-soul music movement (a genre that blends jazz, funk, rock and hip-hop with the raw emotion of gospel-inspired soul), characters navigate the complexities of the music industry, their personal lives, and their visions for the future.
