The Captive Moon (and Other Celestial Stories) is an original, Commedia dell’Arte-influenced play with music, inspired by Italo Calvino's collection of short stories Cosmicomics. Hop in your rowboat and travel to the Moon with Soft Brain Theatre Company! When a young boy discovers his great-great-great-uncle's biggest secret, they do the unthinkable: get in the old rowboat, and take a trip to the Moon. Clowns, conspiracy theorists and catapulting Moon Cheese provide the comic relief as the story explores the loss of wonder and how to get your shine back.
Age Guidance: 13
