BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

We want to tell you a story. We want to take you on a journey. We want everything to be different.

This is an adaptation of José Saramago's inventive and beautiful short story, The Tale of The Unknown Island. It's a story about getting stuck, about trying to escape, about shooting for the moon, about going further than the furthest thing. It's a story about finding something you didn't think you needed.
