With the timing of a stand-up comic and the sounds of a symphony, this profound, hilarious one-person show will remind you how the ordinary can be so extraordinary. The Things Around Us is a musically astounding, hilarious, and surprising new one-person show from acclaimed musician, artist, and storyteller Ahamefule J. Oluo. Trumpet in hand, Oluo uses live looping to build layers of music until they brilliantly build to dizzying heights. These stunning songs are in direct conversation with a series of uncanny stories about strangers, acquaintances, and friends—full of unpredictable, delightful twists and turns—which Oluo delivers with the perfect timing of a seasoned stand-up comic.
As Oluo creates entire songs out of anything within arms’ reach, an expansive one-person symphony provides reflective moments for audiences to consider the profound nature of life before bouncing back to the laugh out loud stories and universal observations. The Things Around Us is a perfect 90-minutes that will draw you in and remind you of the beauty that surrounds all of the people and places, both familiar and strange, that we all hold dear.
The Things Around Us is the third in a trilogy of shows from Oluo, following Now I’m Fine and Susan.
