Alienne

A rollicking parody of a timeless classic,Aliennetransports Hans Christian Andersen'sThe Little Mermaidinto the wacky world of outer space. The heroine, Alienne, is a spunky Martian teenager who boldly opposes the prevailing Martian attitude that human feelings and failings are signs of weakness. In fact, she secretly longs to be an Earthling herself and soon gets her wish, but only after promising her soul to the evil space witch, Earthsula. Alienne's quirky musical journey ultimately teaches all the space creatures (and their human audience) a valuable lesson about tolerance, empathy, and the merits of learning from one's mistakes. Featuring seven principal roles and five lead narrators,Alienneoffers plenty of opportunity for actors of all abilities. With plenty of audience participation and goofy humor, this spaced-out adventure is ideal for young audiences and their families.
