Why do we need all this stuff? I’m sorry it’s such a vague question but you see some Satanists confiscated my notebook, the notebook that had all the details in it. We are enacting a ritual to mend and recover, to heal our bad relationship with things. We’re reconstructing it from memory. We want to learn how to respect a spoon.

Collaborating Artist: Normandy Sherwood (Writer, director); Ean Sheehy, Julia Sirna-Frest, and Lisa Clair (Performers)

Each performance will run approximately 15 – 20 minutes. Normandy Sherwood is presented within the 6:00pm – 7:30pm set. Follow by a short discussion, moderated by Caleb Hammons.
