I wanted to let you know that the next production by the Flat Earth Theatre will start on April 16th and run through April 24th at the Arsenal Center for the Arts Black Box Theatre in Watertown MA. The next production is a sci-fi drama called “On This Moon” which was written by my son Kevin.

Living on a remote moon, Dr. Paulson seeks a better life for his daughter, Mary. To that end, he tasks his android servant, Ariel, with sabotaging a passing ship containing a potential suitor for Mary, Freddy–who later reveals that he is gay. Ariel, who desires freedom above all, performs Paulson’s bidding in the hopes that he will release her. Events are complicated by Mary’s secret relationship with Caden, an alien also living on the moon. Caden, meanwhile, wants only to remove Paulson from the moon which he feels is rightfully his. Drawing inspiration from The Tempest, On This Moon blends the conventions of a Shakespearean comedy with a contemporary tale of greed and betrayal, love and acceptance, posing the question: what does it really mean to be human?

Performances are to be held April 16th, 17th, 22nd, 23rd, and 24th at 8 PM with matinées presented April 18th and 24th at 2 PM. All shows will be performed at the The Arsenal Center for the Arts Black Box, conveniently located on the MBTA 70 and 70A bus routes at 321 Arsenal Street in Watertown. Tickets are priced at $15 in advance, $18 at the door. Students and seniors receive a $5 discount.
