Nova Goes Below
by Emily Cronan

YOUNG PERFORMERS THEATRE PRESENTS ITS FIRST POST-COVID PRODUCTION AT NEW FORT MASON HOME

Nova Goes Below, an adaptation of an original play by YPT alum Emily Cronan, has broad youth appeal

March 23 - March 30

Saturdays at 2:00 & 5:00

Sundays at 3:00

Special performance with talkback Friday March 28 at 7:00

Fresh and quirky with finely etched, eclectic characters, Nova Goes Below tells the story of a restless girl thrust into navigating between two parallel worlds. Feeling emotionally adrift working at a robot dog store in the pristine but sterile suburbia of Glenwood Green, Nova, after calling a local psychic for advice, is inspired to visit a controversial world “down below.” She quickly takes to the ramshackle desert town, meeting various outcasts who escaped from the suburbs to follow their hearts and learning about a rare collection of interplanetary lost letters revealing a tangled web of connections between both worlds.
