The Boy at the Edge of Everything
ABOUT THE SHOW
In the middle of his over-scheduled 12-year-old life, Simon Ives dreams of a place where he can just stop and think. Meanwhile, at the farthest point of the universe, The Boy at the Edge of Everything lives by himself, lonely and bored. When Simon is rocketed into space (through an unlikely series of events involving “lots and lots of fireworks”), their worlds collide and neither will ever be the same. Follow Simon on an epic adventure through space and time in this quirky and charming play.
THE BOY AT THE EDGE OF EVERYTHING received development at 2012 New Vision New Voices, John F Kennedy Center for the Arts, Washington DC. The first production of The Boy at the Edge of Everything took place in Seattle, USA in March 2014 as produced by Trusty Sidekick Theater Company and Seattle Children’s Theatre. This video is of the 2016 New York Premiere presented by Lincoln Center Education, produced by Trusty Sidekick Theater Company.
