Won’t You be my Neighbor?
Fri, July 28 2017 · 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
In the Heart of the Beast
MPLS (imPulse) joins Bart Buch and In the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre’s Phillips Project for a staged summer production celebrating the Phillips Neighborhood of Minneapolis. The performance features vocal music and puppet vignettes, video projection, dance, photography, and stilting that weave together text and themes from residents living in Phillips. Young Dance, Powderhorn Theatre Arts Group, and St. Paul’s Lutheran Church will all make guest appearances.
Won’t You be my Neighbor? culminates with a lantern procession led by The Phillips Project youth and partners United Tribes of Little Earth, Waite House, and PPL’s Collaborative Village Initiative. We’ll travel from In the Heart of the Beast’s Avalon Theatre at 15th Avenue & Lake Street to Powderhorn Park (approx 5-6 blocks). Audiences should be mobile and dressed appropriately for the weather.
