First Stage's Amplify Fall Festival invites artists and audiences from all different backgrounds to share with our community in the creation of new work, fostering a place of creation where all voices are heard and the work developed is an authentic reflection of our community. Join us for this season's Amplify Fall Festival, November 8-15, featuring readings of two new works. See below to learn more about LILLY AND THE PIRATES.
Amplify Fall Festival Readings are Pay What You Choose ($10 Suggested Donation). Call our Box Office at (414) 267-2961 to reserve your tickets ahead of time, or get your tickets at the door!
A sighting of the rare frangipani fruit fly sends Lilly's scientist parents off in search of the fabled Shipwreck Islands. In this Smithsonian's Notable Book for Children, Lilly awaits their return at the home of her great-uncle Ernest, the chief librarian of Mundelaine, a town that seems to have more than its share of piratical-looking characters lurking about. When news comes that her parents' ship has wrecked, she must overcome her fear of the sea, find the hidden island, and outsmart a bunch of treasure-hungry pirates to save the day.
Let your voice be heard. Following each reading, there will be a talkback where audience members are encouraged to engage in dialogue with the playwrights, helping shape the development of potential future productions at First Stage.
