The family musical of epic proportions. Meet the Galaxy family and their dog Gravity.

A Universal Musical

This story answers the 13.8-billion-year-old question: What's FAMILY and how IS it EVERYTHING?

#familyiseverything

ELLIPSES is a universal musical that stars the Galaxy family and their dog Gravity as they sing and dance their way out of a family tragedy, known as the Big Bang. It is an adaptation of this theory. The plot chronicles the events leading up to the Big Bang and ends with the theoretical end of the Universe (Big Crunch). ELLIPSES packs many coming-of-age themes from adulthood, family dynamics, generations, mortality, and the passage of time. David Quang Pham manifested ELLIPSES as an astrophysics undergrad and crafted ELLIPSES during his apprenticeship at Working Title Playwrights, Atlanta.
