Free

Are you scared about the future? Do you feel climate despair? What’s your first memory of a storm? What’s a time you’ve leaned on a neighbor during a disaster? Do you think the world has ended, or has it just begun? Do you want to watch me play this cool Japanese synth from 1987 I got off E-bay? We’re excited to present A FUN PLAY ABOUT HOW SCARY to answer these questions, creating a performance that draws from our personal and cultural stories of climate, flooding, rain, and community, in a way that is authentic, personal, intimate, and comedic. We’re mostly excited to answer the last question.
