Amazing Adventures of Arianna Astronaut

Description

This summer's touring piece is written and directed by Wyckham Avery.

Arianna loves the stars, Neal deGrasse Tyson, and astronauts. She doesn't love the noisy, smelly city she lives in, her crazy classroom with so many voices and colors, or being told no. Luckily, she can escape those things inside her space helmet. Inside her helmet she can travel to planets, chat with her heroes, and discover new worlds.

Arianna has autism and her helmet helps her when the world gets overwhelming. It also takes her to better places, where she is in control and she writes the script.
