The Moonchildren is a new one-act play by Liam Wirsansky that navigates the mystifying world of two children on a ship escaping an imminent climate catastrophe that threatens their home and others around it. Exploring ideas such as dual power, language, art, and more, these siblings investigate the outer forces that control society as we know it, confounding on opposing forces, such as capital and labor, through playful and philosophic discussions and games. The Moonchildren seeks to identify some of the decaying mechanisms of capitalism that we can see affecting American hegemony and their influence on the world today, illustrating its massive influence and its conforming consequences on the future if change does not present itself.

Moonchildren Cast:
FINN – An intelligent young spirit who is encapsulated by the beauty of language and the power words hold. FINN often takes charge in their relationship with WILLOW, often being forced to restrain WILLOW’s imaginative behavior to ensure their safety and survival together. FINN and WILLOW are siblings and have a youthful way about the way they act and carry themselves.

WILLOW – A wily and sometimes reckless young spirit, WILLOW thrives off of a very strong creative imagination and questionable indignation for rules. WILLOW loves FINN, but also knows what buttons to push in their relationship and enjoys annoying FINN. FINN and WILLOW are siblings and have a youthful way about the way they act and carry themselves.

WATCH – A very stern rule follower, who works on the ship and is an enforcer of the law. A bit peculiar in the way they conduct and hold themselves, WATCH remains to be inventive and cunningly whimsical in the way they carry about their business and duties.

Three high school sophomores obsess over the hidden identity of the street artist known only as Boy King. As they pine after the identity of the local hero, they more deeply come to understand each other.

Boy King Cast:
TYREKE - An African American high schoolboy. He takes photos so he doesn't forget the things he loves. The type of kid who posts a picture of himself on Snapchat with a friend but scribbles across his own face.
JACK - A Caucasian high schoolboy. Jack is Ava's boyfriend and Tyreke's best friend since kindergarten. Jack thinks before he speaks but has a soft heart. His intentions are usually good but sometimes his actions are questionable. He has a hard outside but a soft inside, like a blow pop
AVA - Ava is a Caucasian high school girl, Ava is boyfriend to Jack. She is strong-willed and organized and cares very much to impress her mom in all she does. She cares about what is right and will stand for it in every situation.
DAD - Tyreke's dad is a mid-aged African American male. He is a single parent and is trying his best to raise a confident son. He always reaches for a point of connection with his son but always seems to fall short.
THE BOY KING- The Boy King is a local political street artist. No one knows his real name or what he looks like. His paintings seem to appear in different places overnight.
MRS. BUTTS- Mrs. Butts is a high school English teacher. She cares a lot about her job but cares more for the students. She is a hard ass but only because she cares.
BROCK - A high school boy and the class jock who is made the butt of every joke that Mrs. Butts makes.
CAROLINE - A high school girl
CONNOR - A high school boy.
SHELLY- A high school girl.
