Campbell O'Hare, Alice Yorke & Newton Buchanan
Interact
Theatre Company is presenting the Philadelphia Premier of Walden through
November 23, 2025. Set sometime in the not-too distant future, the earth is
ravaged by tsunamis followed by news reports of millions of deaths, and
earthquakes with comparable results. Scientists are actively trying to discover
ways to colonize other habitats and “start over,” being kinder to the climate. Earth
Advocates are trying to save this planet, against all odds, by returning to
nature, spurning the use of electricity, and growing their own food. Campbell O'Hare portrays Cassie, a NASA astronaut who has just returned from a moon mission and
appears to visit her sister twin sister in a remote cabin. Alice Yorke beautifully beautifully portray Stella, Cassie's twin, and the confused ex-NASA architect who isn’t sure whether to stay with her simple life
or return to work with NASA. Newton Buchanan remains steadfast in his beliefs
as Bryan. He is committed to his fiance Stella, but even more committed to his life as an
Earth Advocate. All three actors portray believable characters and each one’s
point of view presents a valid conundrum. As usual with the plays presented at
InterAct, this one ends with a cliff hanger. You must buy a ticket to see this
breathtaking performance.
