Nick Jones, playwright, puppeteer, and licensed real estate agent, melds his
interests in this musical featuring singing real estate. Music provided by
Benjamin Ickies of the Ambitous Orchestra.
Ralph is a man trying to develop land in New York's hottest outlying
neighborhood - Alaska. He begins a metaphysical love affair with a talking
building, and together they attempt to create a Newer York City for the Arctic.
A bizarre and heartbreaking melodrama, in perfect proportion to the city we live in.
