Trash Panda-monium
Production by Blindspot Collective
Co-Directed by Desha Crownover and Marc Caro-Willcox
Written by Shellina Hefner and Elissa Russell
Audiences of all ages are greeted by a friendly forest ranger who places a campsite under their care and supervision. When three clever raccoons arrive to explore the mysterious objects left behind, young audiences must consider how to balance friendship and collaboration - imagining playful games and scenarios through the lens of sustainability. Scout, Bandit, and Ringo use their imagination to turn trash into treasure, encouraging youngsters to participate in a stormy game of pretend, sharing their own methods of communication, and solving problems. When the fun and games cause a mess, audiences and trash pandas alike must untangle important lessons about sustainability, working together, and keeping all of our natural habitats clean and safe.
