'The House of Red Velvet'
From the event description:
"The House of Red Velvet" is surrealistic and euphoric performance dark art theater. You will be taken through a winding dream-like metaphor of erotic and disturbing images, provoking your senses and confusing your mind. It's an experimental artistic orgy of the eccentric; a collective dream inducing all of the human emotions.
When: Wednesday, May 8, 10 p.m.
Where: Jewelbox Theater at Rendezvous, 2322 Second Ave.
Price: $25-$75

'Office Hour'
From the event description:
Alarmed by his grisly writings, a professor invites a troubled student to her office to shed light on — and build a bridge across — the dark clouds that surround him. As the clock ticks down and tensions rise, she learns that notions of “good” and “bad” are dangerous illusions. A stirring call for empathy and a bold experiment in form, this searing play tackles thorny issues of gun violence, immigration and “the other” to reveal our essential, human need for connection.
When: Thursday, May 9, 7:30 p.m.
Where: ArtsWest, 4711 California Ave. SW
Price: $20

'Found Objects' with Improv Anonymous
From the event description:
If Show and Tell were as much fun as "Found Objects," nobody would have left preschool. The skilled improvisers of Improv Anonymous take the concept behind the familiar classroom activity and expand it into something exciting and altogether unpredictable. Each week, the performers will bring in an actual object from their day or request one from the audience. Then, with the audience's support, they will craft a story on the spot that explores each object.
When: Friday, May 10, 8:30 p.m.
Where: Unexpected Productions’ Market Theater, 1428 Post Alley
Price: $7.50
