Under The Ice is a surreal and introspective theatrical piece that explores themes of grief, loss, and the afterlife. The story follows Kailan, a neurotic teenager who drowns in a tragic ice fishing accident and embarks on an unusual journey through the depths of Lake Erie, guided by Clarence, a comical and forgetful walking, talking Ice Fish. While Kailan navigates the afterlife, his family members grapple with his absence, each processing their grief in unique ways.
Theater for The New City is at 155 1st Ave., New York, NY 10003, New York, NY.
