Details

   We are New Orleans based performers with a passion for local culture and youth education. We have just been granted studio space and theatre access at the Colton Academy on St Claude Ave.. The goal of this physical and musical work is to find an escape for a common language from the limitations of words, to generate a playful vocabulary using parade and theater.
