“Light Years Away” is an original dance theatre production about the Sun and the Moon and their relationship to each other. The Sun loves all eyes on her, so much that she doesn’t always notice those around her! The Moon is lonely and just wants someone to play with. Will the Sun be able to see through her sunbeams to notice those around her? With original music, puppetry, and sensory interactive props, “Light Years Away,” is truly an adventure for all ages!

Light Years Away reached over 1000 people over its 20 show run! This show was co-produced with the Please Touch Museum and had 14 performances at the theatre. We also toured the show to Jane Addams Place Shelter, Philadelphia Theatre Company, Beehive @ BOK, Smith Memorial Playhouse, Music Theatre Philly (NEST), and the Ronald McDonald House of Philadelphia.
