The Umbrella invites adventure lovers of all ages to set sail with us on a high-energy, family-friendly epic that combines live, narrative folk music, puppetry, and theatrical effects for a unique, fantastical theater experience!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.Directed for The Umbrella Stage Company by the award-winning Julia Deter, who previously helmed Umbrella favorites including Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Ragtime, Singin' in the Rain, and A Chorus Line."100 minutes of sheer artistry that will have you leaving the theater with a smile on your face and a warm feeling in your heart." - Around the Town Chicago"This is a story of time and tides and quests, the sort of fable on which mythologies and religions are founded ... [the creators ask] us to appreciate the finer arts of wild storytelling, while speaking to the childish mind in all of us." - The New York TimesKNOW BEFORE YOU GO: For admission into the theatre, all event attendees (of all ages) MUST provide proof of full vaccination by showing an original vaccination card, a photo of the card, or a digital vaccine record. Anyone exempt from/ineligible to receive the vaccine or unable to verify vaccination status must present proof of a negative PCR COVID-19 test result taken within 72 hours of the time of entry OR a rapid test administered by a healthcare professional within 24 hours of the time of entry (self-administered at-home tests will not be accepted). Regardless of vaccine status, ALL patrons must wear a properly fitted CDC-approved face mask inside the building. The Umbrella will operate at limited capacity with distanced seating. We reserve the right to reseat patrons as needed in accordance with our COVID protocols. All tickets will be held at the box office to ensure the safest, most accurate experience for all patrons.
