The island is sinking. Its adults are useless.
Time for the kids to save the day. Same old
story, right? When the island of Proud Circle
springs a leak, it’s up to one girl to look beyond
its edges and discover the maybes and what-ifs
that are its only hope.
From the mind of Finegan Kruckemeyer,
Australia’s most accomplished children’s
playwright, comes a tale of wonder and invention
that is brought to life in unexpected ways.
Step inside a picture book as cartoonist Oslo
Davis draws the story live while Sarah Ward aka
Yana Alana reads it to you. All of this takes place
amidst a paper set that is cut, ripped, patched
and manipulated live to create a world of play.
This project is assisted by the Australian Government’s Major Festivals Initiative in
association with the Confederation of Australian International Arts Festivals Inc., Melbourne
Festival, Darwin Festival, Brisbane Festival, Sydney Festival and Ten Days on the Island.
