Moonscape to Treescape

by Craig Mason Canadian Author

An environmental fable about a city that destroys its natural beauty in order to support its only industry. When the characters realize that their landscape has been devastated, the audience must play a role in the rebuilding process.

This play blends storytelling and song and is particularly challenging for the ensemble. They get to play miners, lumberjacks, scientists, and the very environment itself.
