Neptune is a collaged fairy tale about how we adapt to a changing world. While the Whale (portrayed by a singer at a piano) tells her story entirely through song, the Boy's tale unfolds through simple storytelling and bold physical theater. A playful, dark adaptation of H. C. Andersen's "The Little Mermaid," Neptune explores the nature of sacrifice, the meaning of self, and the question of water. Neptune is the second play written for the Planet Play series, an eight-play cycle conceived and written by Jeremy Pickard that uses planet mythology as a departure point for examining the relationship between people and their environment.
