02/07 COMMFEST: Shorts & Jorts

$15.00

FIVE EXPERIMENTAL PERFORMANCE PIECES AND ONE (short) PLAY!

The Shorts: A Variety Show of New Experimental Performance

Bouffon-inspired physical theater, experimental dances about Gratitude and Girlies, an interview with the Universal Publick Friend, and 19th-century drag performances all feature in this rapid-fire variety show of new work by Frankie Gormley & Ben Capp, sn/ophie, Eliana Durnbaugh & Co., Shelby Richardson, and Nat Young.

The Jorts: "GUILLOTINE CITY," A New One-Act Play

Watch your fingers! The blade-like doors of the Minneapolis-St Paul Elevated Rail are razor-sharp, and the masses of swarming, indifferent crows are hungry. Who are you supposed to believe in this city of 44 million people? What kind of revolution wears a mask? And why should I care? "GUILLOTINE CITY" by Marge Jorts Buckley. Directed by Sam Weisberg. Music by Lisa Frank. Starring Erik Abramsen, Sasha Blinnikova, and Allison Young.

Shorts & Jorts is part of COMMFEST, a micro-festival of experimental performance running February 6-8 at the Bryant Lake Bowl, presented by Commutator Collective, an interdisciplinary arts group based in Minneapolis. Check out the rest of the weekend’s shows at commfest.net

This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
