The evil, anti-musical mastermind, Dr. Monotone wants to take over the world and put an end to music forever with his new weapon: The Monotonizer 3000. This powerful device is capable of transforming all the musical notes that ever existed into one, singular, ear-piercing, terrible-sounding honk. What would our world be with one note, one instrument, one culture, one language?
Our narrator, a brand new spy on her very first mission under Maestro Enterprises Inc., has T-minus 45 minutes to travel the world in search of Dr. Monotone’s secret lair. Grab your high tech gadgets and spy gear as we explore cultures and countries for clues. Only with the audience’s imaginations, problem-solving skills, and musical insight will we be able to prevent the end of diversity in music as we know it!
