THEATRE
Sheila and Moby
October – November 2018
WORLD PREMIERE
When Sheila, a successful young businesswoman, returns to her hometown for the weekend, she is immediately swept up in a tale of intrigue, suspicion, and adventure. A young neighborhood girl has come seeking help tracking down her missing best friend, a recently kidnapped stuffed Koala. Reluctantly taking the case, Sheila enlists the help of her own abandoned childhood companion – an Iberian Lynx named Moby – for one last best buddy adventure. An exploration into the power of imagination, the changing relationships between parents and children, and what it means and possibly costs to grow up.
