Will you lose your job? Is it time to dump your boyfriend? Move to a new city? Run for office? ASK THE ORACLE! Boston-based band Jim's Big Ego presents an original theatrical production entitled The Ego & The Oracle - an evening of spontaneous musical fortune-telling.
Part improvisational theater, part cabaret, part audience participation, The Ego & The Oracle is a live stage spectacular where "Ouija Board meets iPod Shuffle". Audience members are invited on stage to ask personal questions of The Oracle. They then spin a giant wheel containing songs by Jim's Big Ego. When the wheel stops, the band spontaneously performs the chosen song, which is then interpreted as the answer to the question. The outcome can be humorous or moving, often both at once.
It is a show about synchronicity and it's hard to experience it without getting the sense that the universe is not only in tune, but that it also has a great sense of rhythm.
Jim's Big Ego is a Boston band consisting of Jim Infantino on lead vocals and guitar, Jesse Flack on Bass, Dan Cantor on drums and Josh Kantor on keys. They've released 8 albums so far and have been featured on NPRs All Things Considered and The Dr. Demento show. They've toured throughout the US and the UK over the years. Jim is the chief songwriter, but the band has written several songs as a group. Notable are "Stress," "The Ballad of Barry Allen," and "In My Cult." They are working on a new album for 2026.
