DEAD MOOSE tells the story of an eighteen year old boy named Job, who has returned from the hospital after miraculously surviving a car accident with a moose on the road. The show plays out as a series of non linear vignettes as we follow Job reassessing his life by reviewing his feelings about death, fate and religion. All while the voice of his dead moose continues to nag and annoy him inside his head. 

 

“Dead Moose” was conceived by Tafolla while attending AMDA Los Angeles and first showcased some of the songs in development at Republic of Pie in Los Angeles in February of 2018.

 

A concert reading of the show was performed in January 2025 at the City Heights Performance Annex in San Diego, CA. Directed by Tafolla and produced by Kevin Blax Burroughs. With an all star San Diego cast featuring Salima Gangani, Van Angelo, Mikaela Macias, Audrey Deubig, Zane Camacho & Jack Gemmell.
