GUILDS OF MANZOA

An Original Fantasy Rock Musical Comedy 

Script by Norman Grey

Music by Heidi Davis and Ken Bussell

Directed by Makaela Terrance

Jaimie, Max, Spencer, Kelly, and Steve are your typical Dungeons & Dragons group with their typical campaign. That is until the group decides to "branch out" and play a mysterious role-playing game called “Guilds of Manzoa”. Through the game, the group of friends is transported to a fantasy world where they discover 3 elder dragons (posing as greedy billionaire business moguls in the real world) that control both realms with their hoards of wealth. In order to save mankind, they must band together and destroy the evil dragons.

Written by local Portland artists, “Guilds of Manzoa” is a hilarious musical teaming with fantasy tropes, meta-humor, and overall nerdiness that any fantasy or D&D fan will love. It’s a quirky and campy adventure tale with a sprinkle of socioeconomic satire. The score is a mix of traditional power metal, heavy metal, classic rock, and even rap/rock with hilarious lyrics reminiscent of hammy Broadway musicals like The Book of Mormon and Spamalot with a twist of Tenacious D. 

Rated PG-13 for some adult language and humor. Recommended for ages 10 and up.
