The Other Place Musical Synopsis

Our protagonist is a fresh out of highschool new adult, who moves with their mother to a small town in Nevada, quite literally off the map. However, upon arriving, nothing is as it seems. A Grim Reaper for mayor, a dead girl ressurrected, a punk rock demon princess? However, our protagonist’s world turns upside down completely, when they open up a strange book in the town library, and fall into a dark and devilish world below. The hope is to create an audio drama first, and then an animation!

He married me off to some hotheaded ruffian who only wanted my money and to turn me into some weak little wifeypoo who’d rub his feet and feed his dogs. I sorta took a shine to the boneheaded lummox for a while, and actually thought I loved him, and pretended to be tamed, but a girl can only take so much! Trying to get a divorce in Italy was like trying to get the Pope to dance the Hula, so I was stuck. I considered murder….and suicide, but in the end, I just suffered and became the world’s first Italian feminist. I don’t belong here.

Can you believe I mean it when you hear me shriek? I’m crazier than you. I’m crazier than you. And now I’ll prove to you exactly how-ow-ow- I’m crazier than you, I’ll do what you can do. From here on in I’ll give my solomn vow-ow-ow-ow”

Lyrics:

“Write what you know so they say, all I know is I don’t know what to write or the right way to write it. This is big, lady don’t screw it up! This is not some little vaudeville you’re reviewing! Poor little kids versus rich greedy sourpusses- hah, it’s a cinch, it can practically write itself! And let’s pray it does. Cause as I may have mentioned I have no clue what I’m doing! Am I insane, this is what I’ve been waiting for! Well that, plus the screaming of ten angry editors! A girl! It’s a girl! How the hell- is that even legal! Look, just go and get her- Not only that there’s a story behind the story: thousands of children, exploited, invisible. Speak up, take a stand, and have someone to write about it- that’s how things get better! Give life’s little guy some ink and when it dries, just watch what happens. Those kids will live and breathe right on the page and once they’re center stage just watch what happens! And who’s there with her camera and her pen, as boys turn into men, they’ll storm the gates, and then just watch what happens when they do! ooooh!”

“Gee, I hate to break it to you. The universe is just the contents of time, matter and space. Ninety one billion light-years across and the Earth's a small place

Where good people die- Yeah, In famine and wars. The Pacific Islands are sinking. But negative thinking is hardly the cause. You think life is all unicorns and rainbows 'cause you're bored. And positivity is a luxury that few can afford. We're gonna die. Yes, you and I, Meaninglessness and alone”

Lyrics:
“She's imperfect but she tries. She is good but she lies. She is hard on herself. She is broken and won't ask for help. She is messy but she's kind

She is lonely most of the time. She is all of this mixed up. And baked in a beautiful pie. She is gone but she used to be mine. It's not what I asked for

Sometimes life just slips in through a back door. And carves out a person. And makes you believe it's all true. And now I've got you. And you're not what I asked for. If I'm honest I know I would give it all back. For a chance to start over. And rewrite an ending or two. For the girl that I knew”

Lyrics:

“Don't think about tomorrow. We've only got today There's nothing I want from you

Not a word you have to say. You are all I need. And all I can defend.All I need to hold on to, If the world should end. In my imagination, I could not have made this up. In a world stranger than fiction, Ours is no fictional love. I can see the you, Under your second skin. I can feel your heartbeat quicken. Quicken and then slow. There's nothing else I need to know. And there's nothing, You need to pretend. If the world should end. And the sky tonight is luminous. For all the wrong reasons. And every doorway is hiding something. And if this world should all come crashing down. I wouldn't care at all. And if there's no tomorrow. I'll have today again. There's no time for sorrow, When there's no such thing as time. And if the darkness will descend, Don't need a savior or a friend. I can say I've really loved. If the world should end”

Lyrics:

“When you feel your heart is pounding. Fear a devil's at your door. There's no place to hide. You're frozen to the floor. What you do then is you force yourself. To wake up, and you say "It's this dream, not me That's bound to go away". Hold on. Hold on, the night will soon be by. Hold on. Until there's nothing left to try. Child, hold on, there's angels on their way. Hold on and hear them say. "Child, oh child". And it doesn't even matter

If the danger and the doom. Come from up above or down below. Or just come flyin' at you from across the room. When you see a man who's ragin'. And he's jealous and he fears. That you've walked through walls. He's hid behind for years. What you do then is you tell yourself. To wait it out and say. "It's this day, not me. That's bound to go away". Child, hold on. It's this day, not you. That's bound to go away.”

That circle of vultures up high. They keep stealing glances, they don't like your chances. And neither do I. I run my pride. You run and hide. 'Cause I'm gonna be the last thing you see. Before you go, bye-bye. There you go, bye-bye. Climb every tree across land and sea. Until you go, bye-bye. Will you go? Bye-bye. Bye-bye for vengeance is mine. If I'm the last of my line, I must be strong. Bye bye. Make you go, bye bye.”

You're a gluttonous queen. Narcissistic and mean. Kill me romantically. Fill my soul with vomit. Then ask me for a piece of gum. Bitter and dumb. You're my sugarplum. You're awful, I love you! She moves through moonbeams slowly. She knows just how to hold me. And when her edges soften. Her body is my coffin. I know she drains me slowly. She wears me down to bones in bed. Must be the sign on my head. That says, oh Love me dead! Love me dead!”

Lyrics:

“You handsome decent guys just love to tell us. That self-respect and self-restraint are good. Well smarmy words like that may just repel us. Please give us food or leave our neighborhood. You guys who think we ought to starve and still be nice. While you yourselves keep eating and grow fat. It might be better to serve up some beans and rice. Raise moral issues, maybe, after that. We see the banquet spread right there before us. We’ll take our fill and then we'll let you pull us. So how do humans live. By eating humans. By boiling, frying, roasting, toasting those who they can. This life is possible because us humans avoid the sight of their own frying pans. So handsome decent guys, hear this again. We humans only live by killing men. You guys just love to regulate our sex lives. A penis here is bad but here it’s good. Well, we think that hypocrisy just wrecks lives. Please give us food or leave our neighborhood. We know you think we ought to study carefully. The model lives of you who dine and chat. It might be better to serve up some beans and rice. Raise moral issues, maybe, after that. We see the banquet spread right there before us. We’ll take our fill and then let you pull us. So how do humans live. By eating humans. By boiling, frying, roasting, toasting those who they can. This life is possible because us humans avoid the sight of their own frying pans. So handsome decent guys hear this again. We humans only live by killing men”
