PLUTO IS MISSING! A Not-So-Planetary Musical Returns To The Peoples Improv Theater Sundays At 3pm Image

The People's Improv Theater is thrilled to announce that "Pluto Is Missing!" is back for a new slate of shows in the Striker Mainstage, Sundays at 3 pm.

The beloved family-friendly musical features puppets and songs telling the fantastical story of the former planet Pluto's reaction to its 2007 demotion from planet to dwarf planet. The show has been delighting audiences of all ages since September 2017. After a brief summer break, it has returned for a run of 9 shows, performing Sunday afternoons September through December 2018. Running time is approximately 75 minutes with no intermission, tickets are $20 from The PIT box office. Full schedule and tickets are available at https://thepit-nyc.com/events/pluto/

Show-Score members have described "Pluto Is Missing!" as "a lovely, nerdy, clever, adorable space show," and a reviewer on Headout.com heralded it as a, "Perfect show to experience along with your children! It is such a wonderful, educational experience to learn about the solar system. Highly recommend taking your entire family for this musical! It'll be a night to remember."

In this new run, "Pluto Is Missing!" is delighted to welcome two new cast members after the departure of original cast member Aria Shahghasemi, who joins the cast of ?Legacies o?n CW. Julian Rissetto and Joshua Nasser join as Pluto's moon Charon and goofball NASA scientist Dr. Maxwell respectively.

About the show:

The year is 2006, and there's been a big shake up in the Milky Way: Pluto isn't a planet anymore! The Peoples Improv Theater presents "Pluto Is Missing! A Not-So-Planetary Musical", a family-friendly musical comedy that blends music, puppets, and fantasy with real science and space exploration history to tell the story of the demoted planet Pluto's imagined quest of self-discovery. The cosmic story of Pluto's demotion brings the young and young-at-heart a message of self-acceptance through music and humor that is, well, universal.
