This musical is dedicated to the Loch Ness Monster who started it all, so long ago.
In MY FRIEND NESSIE, Wilver, a seven year old boy, is living with his eccentric grandmother near the sea. He hasn't spoken for two years… since the trauma of his parents' death. Wilver's first words are to Nessie. She comes to him simply because his need is so great.
Wilver's childhood adventure with his great green friend influences his adult life. As a young man planting persimmon trees he sings, "first, here's one for Nessie… now, here's one for me."
This story, throughout, embraces the beautiful meaning of ubuntu, "I am because you are."
