If you're going to tell a story about a journey to hell and back then you need to have a reason. Some kind of moral or message or even just an engaging character that the audience can grab ahold of to root for success.

On top of that it fails to offer any kind of memorable or plot-moving songs leaving me to wonder who this show was written for since it obviously wasn't the audience.

The dynamic downtown theater company Naked Angels, under the leadership of new Artistic Director Liz Carlson, presents the World Premiere of SeaWife, a new folk concert play co-created by Seth Moore (The Man With America Skin) and indie-folk rock sextet The Lobbyists.  SeaWife will play a limited engagement June 23 - July 19, 2015 at South Street Seaport Museum's Melville Gallery (213 Water Streeet) in New York's historic South Street Seaport district.

Picture this: an old-world grandmother, new-age grandson and a tiny New York apartment - what could possibly go wrong?
