🚌🎶 Thank you Sunrise Brown and the cast and crew of “RIPTA: The Musical” and the hundreds of attendees who showed up to cheer them on. The show is a deeply funny & relatable depiction of the joys, challenges, and hopes for public transit in RI, and the painful realities in this current moment. 🧵
A clearing under a tree serves as a stage with an actor in a blazer with a bright orange tie singing in the foreground. Three people behind hold signs above their heads with one letter each spelling ROAD.A person stands under a twisty tree under cloudy skies, singing with their arms outstretched, three chairs sit atop a clearing that serves as a stage in an urban park.A person in an orange e shirt advances as they sing. A twisty tree branch overhead under a cloudy sky in an urban park with a building in the background.A twisty tree extends in all directions framing the “stage” of an outdoor production under a cloudy spring afternoon sky. A cardboard background of the interior of a transit bus is a backdrop for two characters seated in front as passengers, one holds a prop steering wheel. Behind them, a bright orange car with a person wearing a blazer and bright orange tie, chasing the bus.
