Lost in the Woods is an evening of experimental theatre in which guerilla performance artist Patrick Barnes weave a tapestry of authenticity and vulnerability.
Using dance, storytelling, ritual, flight, and blood to weave a tapestry of authenticity and vulnerability to create space for the audience to confront its own demons.
There are two showings. They are substantively different. The show on 18th will include an aerial performance with no blood. The show on the 20th will include an aerial performance involving a hook suspension and blood.
You do not pay for a ticket. Reserving a ticket guarantees you a space. You will pay what you think the show was worth after the show.
