The Old Man has kept his post as the sole caretaker of the moon for as long as he (or his wife, the Old Woman) can remember. When she is drawn away by a mysterious melody sparking memories of their shared past, the Old Man must decide between duty (and routine) and love (and adventure). Luckily for audiences everywhere, he chooses the latter, and what follows is an imaginative sea-faring epic, encompassing apocalyptic storms, civil wars, leviathans of the deep, and cantankerous ghosts, as well as the fiercest obstacle of all: change.

Reviews
“Polished, exuberant The Old Man and the Old Moon at Outcry Youth Theatre makes love an eternal adventure.”
“The low-tech, high energy production, directed by Outcry's artistic director Becca Johnson-Spinos, is fueled by a 20-member company of ardent teenage actors and musicians, so well-rehearsed and certain in their multiple roles, it's easy to just hop aboard the dark ship profiled on the big white sheet and set sail. Stop thinking high school musical, and start thinking hard-working young artists making theater happen.”
-Martha Heimberg, TheaterJones
