Laid Off: A New Musical

by Emma Ventresca YC '26, Aaron Ventresca YSOM '26

Laid Off Poster

Bobby Tuna lives with his eccentric mother, struggling to find contracting jobs during the financial crisis of 2008. Along with his wise-cracking, hockey-loving friends, he begins working on renovations for the city’s ballet company. He unexpectedly finds himself falling for Dallas, a dancer in the corps de ballet. When Bobby discovers his new boss’ corrupt intentions, he teams up with Dallas to make things right. Tightly-knit friendships, shared financial hardships, and comedic antics bring the characters to life when two vastly different worlds – building and ballet – collide.
