Pirate Play
by Xhloe and Natasha
Clementine hasn’t yet found their voice, and Duck hasn’t yet found Clementine, until the two stowaway on a nonsensical pirate ship. They and the crew of eccentric characters journey through everything from avalanches to sea-trolls. An absurd fourth-wall-breaking pirate romp about communication told through meta-theatre, physicality, and word play.
Recommended Age Range: Great for groups with mixed ages and abilities, with parts for all ages and fun for everyone
