Hundred Days
Hundred Days is an uncensored, exhilarating, and heartrending musical based on a true story about embracing uncertainty, taking a leap, and loving as if you only had 100 days to live.
With magnetic chemistry and anthemic folk-punk music, creators Abigail and Shaun Bengson explore a fundamental question in this 2018 Lucille Lortel & Drama League Nominee for Outstanding Musical: how do we make the most of the time that we have?
