The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

Blueprint brings a unique concept within the choral and theatrical arena: letting the audience choose what comes next at Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?: a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure musical tale.
With provided handheld digital devices, the audience will get opportunities to select/vote — at numerous junctures in this mystery/detective thriller — which path the main characters will take next. Backed by a fast-paced plot, audio and visual enhancements, and (of course) an amazing soundtrack, the jukebox-musical-style Choose-Your-Adventure-Now show packs fun and quirky elements together with the amazing choral music that the organization highlights at every show.

THE STORY 
Major landmarks have been vanishing from around the globe, and no agency has been able to catch the thieves. The criminal mastermind behind the heists needs to be found and captured before all of the world’s treasures are gone. Be part of the team of field analyst detectives helping figure out this mystery and decide what the agents do next, with a slammin’ pursuit soundtrack, which could include (depending on the path chosen)…

• Madonna’s Like a Prayer
• A-ha’s Take on Me
• Bach’s Ave Maria
• the Weather Girls’ It’s Raining Men
• Guns N’ Roses’ Welcome to the Jungle
• Florence and the Machine’s Cosmic Love
• Ella Fitzgerald’s Dream a Little Dream

And, of course, you can’t track that notorious crime boss without…
• Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego

Oh, and much, much more.

Grab your magnifying glass and fingerprint kit and join a musical journey of mystery and intrigue. So come and be a part of the show and a part of the story.
