The Old Man and The Old Moon
"The Old Man and the Old Moon" will be performed at six different showings at the Sautee-Nacoochee Center this month.
Shows will be March 11-12, and 18 at 7:30 p.m. and March 13, 19-20 at 2: p.m. in the Historic Gym.
The Old Man has kept his post as the sole caretaker of the moon for as long as he or his wife, the Old Woman, can remember. When she is drawn away by a mysterious melody sparking memories of their shared past, the Old Man must decide between duty and routine, and love and adventure.
Luckily for audiences everywhere, he chooses the latter, and what follows is an imaginative sea-faring epic, encompassing apocalyptic storms, civil wars, leviathans of the deep, and cantankerous ghosts, as well as the fiercest obstacle of all: change.
The local cast ranges in age from 17 to 77 and will take the audience on a journey around the world, traveling by ship, air balloon and on foot. Appropriate for all ages.
Tickets are available online (www.snca.org) and by phone (706-878-3300): Students $12, members $20, non-members $22.
