The play is based on Kate DiCamillo’s novel The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane. Edward Tulane is an expensive toy rabbit made of china. He is loved by a little girl named Abilene, but Edward doesn’t care. He is vain and self-centered. On an ocean voyage, Edward is accidentally thrown overboard and sinks to the bottom of the sea. So begins his journey — a journey over which he has no control, for he is a toy rabbit. This play is an intimate storytelling piece, a theatrical tour de force for its ensemble of actors and musicians.
