The Adventure of Young Turtle is a queer- and trans-led musical for young audiences that incorporates large-scale puppetry, original music, and big questions about forging your identity’s path.
Young Turtle, stuck between land and sea, feels they will never belong. After getting separated from their family, they meet all sorts of creatures: a butch shark, a genderfluid clownfish, a perpetually frightened eel, and many more. They teach Young Turtle important lessons about identity, being true to yourself, and the strength of community. With these new friends, Young Turtle navigates the vast and uncertain ocean to find their way home.
