Five strangers meet in an airport standby line and must decide among themselves who deserves to get on the next flight. They soon realize that this is no ordinary airport and their meeting is by no means a coincidence. With a pop-rock score, this musical reminds us how interconnected we are.
"If there is one choice that you have to make today,
it should be to buy a one-way ticket to Standby at this year’s NYMF. This is a trip you’ll never regret."
-Gianfranco Lentini (NYTheatre.com)
"With its brilliant concept and flawless execution, Standby is one of the best new shows out this season."
-Norma Perez-Hernandez (Letters from the Mezzanine)
A moving and powerful tribute to life!"
- Cheryl Bear, New Play Exchange
“ Standby delivers a first-class experience.”
- Scott Woolage (TimeOutNY)
