Earth – A Children’s Story for Adults
Wed 16th – Fri 18th Aug at 6pm, Sat 19th – Sun 20th Aug 3.00pm £8/6
This one-woman show is an autobiographical fairy tale narrated by Earth herself. Earth was born in a family of orphans and she struggled whilst trying to gain independence from her overly possessive elder brothers, Sun and Jupiter. Despite her brother’s warnings, she is determined to become a mother, unaware of the complications involved. Her vision of a happy family turns into a nightmare because her children are constantly fighting. Instead of stopping her children from harming each other, she loses control and punishes them. Feeling greatly remorseful she finds herself left alone by her disappointed siblings. She is revived by her son Drop, who devotes his entire life to healing her.
