This out-of-this-world rock opera takes its
inspiration from cult figure Daniel Johnston, a singer,
songwriter and artist who first gained recognition in
Austin during the 1980s. Anyone who’s ever enjoyed
Johnston’s music or drawings will want to catch this
exuberant celebration of his unique creativity. The
quirky love story coupled with Beatles-inspired music
was a hit at Houston’s Infernal Bridegroom Productions.
The New York Times said “At a recent performance of
“Speeding Motorcycle,” scores of people were turned away
at the door. Many moped around outside, hoping someone
just might leave at intermission!”
