Superhero Clubhouse in URANUS: a play about waste
July 12-18 // Times TBD
URANUS is a play about waste. The first in a series of ecologically-inspired Planet Plays currently being created by Superhero Clubhouse, URANUS tells three stories simultaneously onstage: William Herschel (the “Father of Modern Astronomy”) has discovered a planet, but he thinks it’s a comet, and he’s fallen in love. Two young backpackers are mysteriously transported to a planet made entirely of Earth’s waste. A derelict called Gaea, searching for something amidst the mountains of her treasured trash, relives her progeny’s tragic descent. Told with physical, poetic storytelling and moronic humor, URANUS is a hodgepodge of history, myth and make-believe, of children, parents and telescopes. Written by Jeremy Pickard and performed by Superhero Clubhouse.
