The Tank

The Mars One Project, a sketchy Dutch enterprise that raised millions of dollars in the 2010s with talk of establishing a human colony on Mars, is the inspiration for this new play by Heloise Wilson, a mixture of physical theater and projections directed at the Tank by Saki Kawamura. The piece is based in part of interviews with scientists and real participants in the Mars One project; in addition to Wilson herself, the cast includes Marisela Grajeda Gonzalez, Regan Hicks, Gibran García and Katherine Bahena-Benitez. 

The enchantingly named Cricket Brown plays a young woman exploring interior landscapes both real and modern-mythological in this loopy intravaganza by Kallan Dana, set in the surburbs of the Pacific Northwest. The cast of five, directed by Hanna Yurfest, also includes Annie Fang, Sarina Freda, Coco McNeil and Felix Teich.
