The Old Man and The Old Moon
Book, Music, and Lyrics by PigPen Theatre Co.
The Old Man has kept his post as the sole caretaker of the moon for as long as he (or his wife, the Old Woman) can remember. When she is drawn away by a mysterious melody sparking memories of their shared past, the Old Man must decide between duty (and routine) and love (and adventure). Luckily for audiences, he chooses the latter, and what follows is an imaginative sea-faring epic, encompassing apocalyptic storms, civil wars, leviathans of the deep, and cantankerous ghosts, as well as the fiercest obstacle of all: change. Storytelling is enhanced by puppetry, music (with actors playing instruments and singing), shadow, projected light, found objects, and Green Valley’s signature brand of funky, unique spectacle.
This whimsical production is intended for adults but appropriate for all ages.
