FRAGMENT
Fragment is a new, devised, body-driven performance piece that focuses on the elementals, breath and creatureness. A collaboration inspired by chance, in conversation with the words of playwright/poet Mary Sefchek. Work transitions to dance, transitions to unknowns, delving into getting separated and seeking ‘’the pack.’’ Following impulse and gut images, breaking into a place that is both alive and dying, welcoming guests and strangers alike. Masks are required for entry. Thursday and Friday, October 28 and 29. Doors at 6:45; show at 7. PETTING ZOO: LIVE COMEDY WITH LIVE ANIMALS

A staged reading of a new play “The Trash Garden” by Padraig Bond Directed by Christina Marks Presented by Velvet Glove Theater The Trash Garden is a beautiful and biting new play set after the inevitable climate disasters approaching our world. We meet Evelyn and Atlas - the last two humans on earth - and their friendly (and sometimes not so friendly) ghost, and track their navigation of a world littered with references from our own and - more challenging than living in the perpetual desiccation of post disaster earth - learning to live with their very human strengths and weaknesses; unlimited imagination, the craving to understand, the lean to cruelty and the desperate need to love and be loved. Wednesday September 1 and Thursday September 2. 7pm. SATURDAY GIANT
