In my Head I'm 21

It’s 1999 and 17 year old Declan is visited by three Celestials who task him with the impossible— create a new number. If he makes a new digit between 9 and 0, then he buys time before Y2K and the crisis that comes with it.  But he’s also seeing prophetic visions of a better — and distracting —  future; one where he is safe and happy as a trans adult. In My Head I’m 21 is a new musical that suggests we don’t all need to be heroes, and creating our own future is the most attainable superpower of all.
