Sky Orbison and the Earth Protectors
We're learning to take care of the earth!
Brett is a school presenter who just doesn't have a passion for the topic, Reducing, Reusing and Recycling. A visitor from the 23rd Century, Sky Orbison, kindles Brett's fire and helps get the message out to school kids - taking care of the earth is fun!
Sky Orbison and the Earth Protectors is a 33 minute play with songs that's just perfect for the K-5 crowd. Written and produced in partnership with METRO, Sky Orbison will entertain and educate - there's time for interactive Q & A - and the whole production fits comfortably in a 45-minute assembly slot. As the producers of ComedySportz, ComedySportz4Kidz, New Canadian Kid and Frozen Carrots, we get it - theatre for young people can be smart and funny - even for adults.
Brett and Sky are played by John Dieffenderfer, Nicole Barrett, Herb Spice, Donna Yarborough, Manuel Hall and Amy Gray.
