Island Song - In Concert

Island Song in Concert - By Carner & Gregor 

Dive In Productions hosts a concert presentation of Carner & Gregor's Island Song.  Island Song takes us through a year in the lives of twenty-and-thirty-somethings sharing a city and the chain of surprising, meaningful, and partially random connections that bring them into each other’s spheres at moments that become pivotal. As the city pulses around them, they each work through their own complex relationships with ambition, distraction, and the search for connection.
