Description

IN THE SUICIDE MOUNTAINS is a musical fable about three souls who are shunned for being different: Chudu the Goat-Man, Armida the blacksmith’s daughter, and Prince Christopher the violin-playing heir to the throne. Pushed to the brink, they head up into the mountains to jump. For this unlikely trio, doing battle with the dreaded 6-Fingered Man proves to be simple compared to finding the inner courage needed to face the truth about themselves.

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.
