THE BOY AT THE EDGE OF EVERYTHING
by Finegan Kruckemeyer
Crested Butte Community School - Multipurpose Room
December 12th, 13th, and 14th
This December, Firebird Theatre is proud to present Finegan Kruckemeyer’s galaxy-trekking Theatre for Young Audiences play. On a tiny blue dot somewhere in the Milky Way, 12-and-a-bit-year-old Simon Ives is a busy child, longing for a place where he can simply exist without the pressures of schedules or expectations. Meanwhile, at the farthest point of the universe, an undying Boy lives alone, looking out at distant happy planets and dreaming to connect. After a freakish yet entertainingly convoluted incident lands Simon at the Boy’s doorstep, the pair will discover that there’s more to their dreams than meets the eye!
