THE WORLD IS UPSIDE DOWN



Runaway Moon Theatre’s local tour of their new show “The World is Upside Down” continues to communities in the Shuswap and North Okanagan.

A blend of Runaway Moon’s intriguing style of puppet theatre and African storytelling, the production weaves together different languages, cultures and times, with an undercurrent of the common experience of water. From a wild nighttime taxi ride in Nairobi, to a gentle moment of connection over the pleasure of making music, it uses as a stepping stone the true story of events that took place in Kenya as performers Jimmy Ouma Okello and Cathy Stubington came to know each other, and learned to work together.
