Lightwire Theater

Called absolutely incredible” by Rolling Stone magazine and featured as a semi-finalist on America’s Got Talent, Lightwire Theater uniquely combines technology and theater to bring stories to life in complete darkness through its signature brand of electroluminescent artistry, “an eye-popping display of storytelling that’s like nothing else you’ve ever seen” (Broadwayworld.com). In this production, Marvin the Mouse wants to be popular, but is constantly bullied by the “cool” rats. He retreats into his science books and a world of fantasy as respite, longing to have adventures and be the hero. Join Marvin on the space adventure of a lifetime: a trip to the surface of the moon on his homemade rocket where he meets a strange cast of misfit creatures and views awesome beauty in this cosmic adventure about celebrating differences.

Recommended for ages 10 and under
