Columbia: the life and death of Rospo D. Oro is a heart-warming, adult fairytale musical following Rospo's wild ride down his self destructive path. In pursuit of faster vehicles in order to chase his destiny and outrun his past, Rospo's reckless behavior continually affects and forever changes the lives of the colorful characters of The Wild Woods. Join the high-speed journey and enter a complex, magical world - a perilous place filled with addiction, murderers, unseen dangers, and a child god with powers beyond their imaginations. Columbia is inspired by the Kenneth Grahame's novel "The Wind in the Willows."
