Hitchhikers guide to the universe - The Wallis - the orange cat net

Douglas Adams wrote The Hitch-Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy as a radio play in 1978. With sharp wit and ironic style, it quickly became a worldwide cult classic. This vibrant, fast-paced, gender-bending production integrates puppetry, stylized movement, miniature sets and live music to bring the timely political satire to life.

Note: Show time on Sunday, June 17th is 2:30PM

Featuring Trecey Dory, Jayde Kief, Matt Maguire, Kelvin Morales, Mauricio Morazan, Madalina Nastase, Jo Rodriguez, Helya Salarvand, Alex Sheldon, Siera Williams

“On the planet Earth, humans had always assumed that they were more intelligent than dolphins because they had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than humans —for precisely the same reasons.” – Douglas Adams [Read more…]
