Moving Arts presents a world premiere play by the winner of the 2008 Francesca Primus Prize as part of the New Play Series at [Inside] the Ford.
Song of Extinction is about the science of life and loss, the relationships between fathers and sons, Cambodian fields, Bolivian rainforests and redemption. Max Forrestal, a musically gifted high school student, is falling off the edge of the world, and his biology teacher, Khim Phan, is the only one who’s noticed. His attempts to help the boy, however, push Khim into a magical journey of his own – from the Cambodia of his youth into the undiscovered country beyond.
On Sunday, December 7, [Inside] the Ford will host an environmental expo in conjunction with the play. Inspired by the strong environmental themes within Song of Extinction, the Green Mini-Expo is a way to connect audiences with local green organizations and businesses that provide access to emerging green issues and eco-friendly lifestyle techniques. Participating vendors include The Center for Sustainable Practice in the Arts, All Shades of Green, Jenneration Fix, Earth Resource Foundation, Large Marge Sustainables & Smart Car.
The Green Mini Expo will take place from 1:00 to 7:00 pm, followed by a pay-what-you-can performance of Song of Extinction at 7:00 pm. Tickets are regularly priced at $20.
Sunday, December 7, 2008. [Inside] the Ford at the Ford Amphitheater. 2580 Cahuenga Blvd. East in Hollywood. For more info, visit the Ford's website.
