Thursday May 22 & Friday May 23: Burn Barrel: A Fire Concert

Doors open at 8:00pm
Show starts at 9:00pm
$15 at the door

Trim yer mullets and grab yer gas cans, 'cause we're headin' down to the Burn Barrel! Come see Copper Lantern's Ex Machina, a retro-futuristic piece that blends dance, theater, fire and video with grease, gears and grime. Listen to the wicked and spellbinding tales of storytelling troupe Onkel Woland and the Black Forest Menagerie. Stay for Red, White and Fire, a premiere production that takes a satirical look at fire performance with a trailer park slant. YES! You want to see clockwork girls! YES! You want ghastly faery tales come to life! YES! You want seven-foot fire villains! YES! You want daisy dukes! So come on down to the Burn Barrel!

Some of the groups collaborating on this project include PureKT Productions, Copper Lantern Fire Theatre, Onkel Woland and the Black Forest Menagerie, Vulcan Crew, Lucid Dream Lounge, and The Department of Spontaneous Combustion.
