PlayCharacter wakes up in an unknown flat world lush with green and natural resources as far as the eye can see. They don’t know who they are, but they have one instinct: to build. And mine. And maybe even craft. Follow PlayCharacter through OverWorld! as they let their heart guide them on a zany adventure through a world, not so different from a popular block based mining videogame, as we explore themes like technology and learning different perspectives of viewing the world. Theater, puppetry, and play will create an adventure that everyone can enjoy, from small humans to big ones.
We live in a time of screens, internet, and technology oh my! And as more time passes, we seem to become more and more reliant on the various smart devices in our daily lives. No generation experiences this greater than our youngest who, not completely unlike the generations prior, often live very full if not fuller lives on the internet than they do in their physical lives. Often this leads to a fundamentally different understanding of reality, which can cause miscommunications and misunderstandings and mistakes galore! OverWorld! hopes to demystify this dissonance through silly storytelling, engaging activities, clearly recognizable iconography and zany visuals tailored to the technological experiences of all generations.
