Pear Theatre and Perspective Theatre Company Present SOMEWHERE by Marisela Treviño Orta

Somewhere is a beautiful new theatre piece exploring the consequences of our neglect of the environment. With almost all the insects gone, the world is beginning to fall apart as crops fail and people struggle to hold on to their ways of life.

Cassandra and her brother Alexander are tracking the last monarch butterflies in the world as they head to the west coast. Their path intersects with a truffle farm where a small group of people are hunkering down for the on-coming collapse of society. Pear Theatre presents this new play in a co-production with Perspective Theatre Company (formerly Arabian Shakespeare Festival).
