High Fidelity

Rob Gordon is in his XNUMXs and enjoys his record store, his girlfriend and making lists. When his girlfriend Laura leaves him, Rob recalls his five most memorable breakups and wonders what happened to them and why they left him.
Surrounded by his employees Dick and Barry and his friend Liz, Rob tries to understand Laura's departure. To Rob's desperation, she begins to go out with Ian, Rob's former hippie neighbor.

The musical takes up rock structures and with the help of direct addresses to the public creates comic situations.
