What We Carry is a percussion production inspired by the music and theatrical world of My Chemical Romance, centered around the iconic “Welcome to the Black Parade.”

The production begins with the dark, dramatic, and emotional atmosphere of “Welcome to the Black Parade,” establishing the central theme of carrying memories, struggles, loss, and the experiences that shape us.

In the second section, the mood shifts into a lighter, more playful character through “Teenagers.” This moment provides contrast and a glimpse of youth, freedom, and rebellion before the weight of the story returns.

The production ultimately returns to the powerful “Welcome to the Black Parade” anthem, bringing the musical and emotional journey full circle.
