The Score
Part of the The Chamber Strand
Troy and Gloria kick off their romance with a typical meet-cute: he orders a coffee at the roadside diner where she works. The reasoning for his visit, however, is anything but typical. The young man is there with Mike, his partner in a criminal mission puzzlingly titled ‘the score’. With songs written by Johnny Flynn, this unusual musical intertwines the riveting tropes of a thriller with the comforting beats of a romance to construct a whimsical experiment in genre. [15]
