Ocean Filibuster
Dive beneath the waves and discover the intimate, critical relationship between humankind and the ocean from Thursday, Feb. 24 through Sunday, March 13. An integrated design immerses audiences inside the Senate chamber of a global governing body, where Mr. Majority introduces an “End of Ocean Bill” designed to shrink Earth’s oceans into a more manageable (and marketable) collection of inland seas. When the floor is opened for debate, the Ocean arrives to speak in its own defense…and so begins an epic showdown. "Ocean Filibuster" fuses myth, song, stand-up and science to explore the vast depths crucial to daily survival.
This world-premiere, genre-crashing music theater experience is created by the Obie Award-winning company PearlDamour and features Obie Award winner Jennifer Kidwell playing both Mr. Majority and the Ocean, along with an Ocean Choir.
