After angering Zeus, the Fates – the goddess sisters who spin, measure, and snip the strings of life for every human on Earth – find themselves banished to a modern office building in the mortal world, where they continue their work hidden among the mortals whose destinies they weave into one giant, glorious tapestry. When eldest sister Atropos meets Mickey, the building’s overnight security guard, love gets the better of her and begins to disrupt the natural order. Can the tapestry of the Universe and her sisters stand this flaw? Fall for this original, uplifting, and belty musical about fate, love, and the imperfections that make us human. The Citadel Theatre’s 2024-25 Young Company students (ages 16-21) have been training at the Citadel since September. String is a culmination of their work in this specialized program designed for young adults pursuing careers in professional theatre.
