This work-in-progress presentation of Higher Than A Body is a solo performance with original music by multidisciplinary performing artist Neil Totton. Set in May 2020 during the global pandemic within the walls of a NYC apartment, where "BJ the Color Intuitive's" desire to use his supernatural gifts to grow rich is challenged. Higher Than A Body is packed with humor, sass, and introspection, inviting audiences into a memory set to music.
