FISHTANK

Extended through March 30!



Click here for our behind-the-scenes videos and our official trailer from Fishtank.

Written by Dominique Serrand, Steven Epp, and Nathan Keepers
Starring Dominique Serrand, Steven Epp, Nathan Keepers, and Jennifer Baldwin Peden
February 16 - March 22, 2008

FISHTANK, n 1: a familiar strangeness navigated by uncommon instinct. 2: the world as we know it. v 1: losing yourself in order to find what you left behind. adj 1: one’s life currently on display, not having previously been subjected to examination.

In the spirit of Jacques Tati and/or Buster Keaton, the real-life characters of Jeune Lune have created, out of their own very particular imaginations, a playground in which life and all its odd complexities and startling revelations collide. At once poignant and hilarious, FISHTANK is a theatrical encounter born out of movement, music, images, comedy, poetry, things lost and things found, the future.









The Deception
October 13 - November 25
Extended through December 2!

adapted by Steven Epp and Dominique Serrand
from "La Fausse Suivante" by Pierre Marivaux
directed by Dominique Serrand

first presented at La Jolla Playhouse, July 17th - August 19, 2007

“a dark, tantalizing, thoroughly Jeune Lune vision… remarkable!”¯
The San Diego Union-Tribune


Suspecting her husband-to-be of betrayal , a fetching young heiress disguises herself as a knight to woo the hand of the countess he desires.  In this new adaptation of an 18th century romp, Theatre de la Jeune Lune brings their incomparable wit and physical exuberance to the perils of courtships in a deliciously nasty game
of love, sex and power.

New “Anytime Rush” extends and expands student pricing


In an aggressive policy shift to help develop a next wave of theatre lovers, Jeune Lune has instituted “Under-25” prices of $9 for all shows this season. Under this new program, anyone under the age of 25 — student or not — can buy tickets in advance or at the door for about the price of a movie. The hope is that this kind of pricing will encourage younger audiences to more often include theater-going in their ever-expanding entertainment menu.
