The 23 Enigma

23 explores the mystery and significance of the number 23, linking it to natural phenomena and historical events like Julius Caesar’s assassination, the tilt of the Earth, and human genetics. Musically, the show incorporates groupings of 2 and 3 through rhythms, accents, and mallet usage, while sound design includes voiceovers and darker historical references as the obsession grows. The show climaxes with the ensemble descending into madness, offering students a rich opportunity to engage deeply with the concept. Secure your copy today!
