For their own safety, and that of their unspoiled rainforest, the Ukocono tribe must keep the island safe from intruders. But when a cast of kooky characters-including three shipwrecked surfer dudes, an English scientist and her assistant, and a real estate developer and his lumberjack friend-show up to investigate the mysterious island, the delicate balance of the tribe's rainforest home is threatened. With roles for performers of all levels, Survival of Ukocono is a rainforest comedy that will entertain and edify.
Notes:
(RECENTLY earned A Texas UIL rating of '1' At A Zone competition!) A comedy About rainforest conservation, written specifically for youth theatre, perfect for One Act Play competitions. Originally performed by 3-5 grade theatre students, it's most often performed by middle school students. Although the original script shows roles for 13 females And 8 males, it should be noted that A majority of the roles Are NOT gender specific And can be cast either way. This makes this script particularly flexible.
