January 12 – February 4 Shakespeare's greatest love story by DC's biggest fools…Romeo and Juliet, the classic story of two young lovers divided by a family feud, borrows heavily from the tradition of Commedia dell’Arte. This high-octane version, featuring five actors in a one-hour cutting, brings physical spectacularity to Shakespeare's poetry and highlights tragedy by juxtaposing it with humor.
banished? productions presents February 16, 2012 Into the Dollhouse is comprised of three movement vignettes that explore childhood reminiscing and the pressure-filled realities of being female and fully-grown. Into the Dollhouse is inspired by music and plays of yesterday, Meredith Monks’ Education of a Girl Child and Charles Mee’s Salome. Performance Press Release
