WEDNESDAY LOWDOWN: Moving Movements in Blue Lake
The 2019 Mad River Festival continues at Dell’Arte with four performances of Through the Waves in as many days. The “highly-physucal” piece, developed by members of the Bay Area’s Uplift Physical Theatre, “tells the tale of a woman who is lost between the uncharted waters of her grief and the shores of her joyful memories following the disappearance of her soul-mate.”
Details on that and more in your Wednesday Lowdown listings below.
