THE SECRETS OF EASTER ISLAND FINALLY REVEALED! Presented by: Picnic Theatre Company&nbsp;Directed and Written by Steve Rochlin On Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, November 11, 12, and 13, join the Picnic Theatre Company at Dupont Underground for an epic adventure across time, The Secrets of Easter Island Finally Revealed! Easter Island and its awe-inspiring giant stone idols overlooking the Pacific Ocean have become the stuff of lore, along with Stonehenge and other marvels whose origins defy easy explanation. Mystery shows like Ancient Aliens and In Search Of have trafficked in supernatural theories of extra-terrestrial intervention, inter-dimensional beings, lost civilizations, and others. Based on a true story, The Secrets of Easter Island, Finally Revealed! takes a provocative, humorous journey across centuries to discover the truth about Easter Island. Along the way, we meet intrepid explorers, ambitious entrepreneurs, investigative journalists, brilliant scholars, and obsessive truth seekers who will stop at nothing to find answers.
