Description
Phoebe’s Closet is a comic drama with music about a fearful latchkey child who spends her after school hours secreted in a closet. When a moth is seen nibbling on an overcoat, Phoebe follows it with her finger and is drawn through a button hole to another Galaxy. There, Phoebe meets creatures who possess large hands with penetrating powers. Because she is malcontent, phobic, and self-obsessed, she is banished to other planets where she meets various aliens who test her tolerance and compassion, inspiring her to overcome her fears.

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
