MISSING EARTH
a play with songs
Halfway down a mountain a cable car stops without warning --- the lives of three people on board hang in the balance. 12 year old Yo, Ireland's foremost wheelbarrow enthusiast, her Dad, pretending everything is OK, and Shelley Springs, an expert in fairy lights.
​
Will they ever get back to earth? What could possibly go wrong or right?
​
With beautiful songs, puns galore and high suspense, Missing Earth is a full hearted adventure for the young and the young at heart.
​
This first presentation of Missing Earth is made possible by funding from the Toy Show Fund managed by the Community Foundation of Ireland. With thanks also to funding from the Arts Council and Cork City Council Arts Office, as well as development support from Cork Theatre Collective.
