Direct from the Canadian wilderness comes "Beaver Dreams," a hilarious physical comedy with an environmental twist. A family of beavers and a family of humans are living in the heart of the Quebecois forest. The beavers go about their daily life: gnawing on wood and building dams. The humans try to go about their typical summer chalet activities: suntanning on the dock, dancing in the moonlight. But when the dam raises the water level over the dock's edge, there is a perpetual struggle between construction and destruction, between the animal and its adversaries. Both the beavers and the humans experience the same nightmare depicting commercial development that threatens their corner of paradise. What if the beavers thought the same as us? Witty puppetry, expert clowning, and clever scenography combine in this unique, award-winning production.
