For Grades P-6: Emilio's A Million Chameleons 

Emilio runs a chameleon circus, just like his father did, where a million different chameleons do amazing acts. But what happens when it all goes wrong? 

This award winning play is for young audiences is a family-friendly musical spectacular about embracing what makes you special and letting that inner sparkle shine! Students will be reminded of the importance of being true to oneself and supporting eachother. This silly and sweet glitter-spectacular features catchy tunes, audience interaction and puppetry, transporting audiences into a wonderful world of shimmer and shine that is sure to ignite the kid in all of us.

This show is created by Adam Francis Proulx (as seen on the Neptune Stage as the Tweedles in Alice in Pantoland and Olaf in Frozen). Neptune TourCo's production will be cast with a local performer, using the original fantastical set and props/puppets.

"An intelligent, fast-paced, funny and engaging show about the importance of being true to oneself. With audience participation and inspired puppetry, we laughed a lot and learned something too." - Celeste Percy-Beauregard, Parent, Writer with bylines in Today's Parent, SavvyMom, The Toronto Star

For Grades 6+: Moose & Hawk with Colonial Park

 

These two original Nova Scotian plays are presented in tandem for one 45 minute theatrical experience. Centering on the historical context of Mi’kmaq oppression, each of these short plays explores the challenging conversations and conflicts that arise in the taking down of colonial statues. These extraordinary plays wowed school audiences in 2023; we knew we had to bring them back. 

Colonial Park by Shauntay Grant: Set in 2018, this play tells the story of two youths as they engaged in conversation around the removal of the controversial statue of Edward Cornwallis in downtown Halifax. They explore and discuss themes of colonialism, the fall of colonist statues around the world, and the important impact that has on the world around them. 

Moose and Hawk by Lisa Nasson: A youth activist is questioned by authorities after the statue of Edward Cornwallis loses his head. Brooke Stephens defends her actions while being interrogated in a police station. Inspired by true events, Brooke takes the audience and the hawk-like policewoman through the historical context of Mi’kmaq oppression.         

 

What audiences had to say about our 2023 production: 

"My students really got a lot from these performances. The post show discussions were rich and brought learning and understanding that only live theatre can create in youth."

"A great topic for students to learn more about, and so well presented through the different perspectives of Alex, Afam, Brooke and Miss."

"Well received by students and staff! Loved the info booklet that was provided as well. Cast and crew were very approachable and personable. Production was of high standard."
