Usher is joined on stage by a chorus of “Thoughts,” actors who embody his inner self doubts and anxiety and transform them into song and dance. Jackson’s self-referential script sees Usher navigating life in New York while trying to write a new musical … a musical about a man similar to himself, who is also trying to write a musical (hence the show’s title).
“A Strange Loop” follows the story of Usher ( Jaquel Spivey), who happens to be a front of house usher for a major Broadway hit.
