 Homage
Performing Group: FREEFALL
From: New York City
Genre: Dance-Theater
Darkly comic, extravagantly physical, rumination on the themes of love, war and justice. "The New York-based troupe follows in the absurdist footsteps of Beckett and Weill by employing a menacing vaudevillian style…urgent in a rambunctious-sad way. Performers are lovely and engaging even as frightening truths brew underneath." —Chicago Tribune. All ages.
Venue: Sidearm Gallery
Shows: 11/11 9:00 pm, 11/12 7:00 pm, 11/13 7:00 pm
 Five Monologues in Search of a Play
Performing Group: Adam Falik
From: New Orleans
Genre: Drama
Five characters testify their part in a conspiracy to perform a play in which a woman carries a human head down a flight of stairs. Five separate monologues conjoin into a panoramic narrative in which the workings of artistic ambition, politics, sexual blackmail, and inner-city survival are woven.

 The Danger Angels
