A funny and gutsy play about sustainability, humanity and the future of the planet, The Last Boy on Earth opened with a bang to a full house in Wodonga on Tuesday night. Written and directed by Yackandandah playwright Brendan Hogan, The Last Boy on Earth portrays complex issues with skill and wit. It is brought to life by Aya McInerney, 11, Connor Wall, 12, Alexandra Mason, 12, and Henry Rotherham, 14. This HotHouse Theatre and Yackandandah Young Players project is totally out of this world, in every sense! Best for earthlings 8+ years.
