About the project and the company

This project involves creating a video recording (using the Zoom platform) of a full length play, THE LAST CRANKIE.  This play is a comedy (for 6 women)  that imagines a post-apocalyptic society in which Creativity isn’t valued and the very act of “Imagining” is endangered.

Set in a dystopian future, this play focuses on three teenaged schoolgirls who, while on an unauthorized adventure, encounter a Crankie, a story-telling device from the 21st century. Through its magical story they experience the importance of preserving our cultural values before it’s too late.
