A new theatrical duet about class and poverty. Through an accumulation of letters written to Mendel from his sister while she was incarcerated at a state penitentiary and found social media posts, we begin to paint a portrait of the ongoing struggle with single parenthood, addiction, crime and poverty.

WHEN: December 11-13, 2017 @ 7:00 p.m.

GRIEF PROJECT (Working Title)
A SunsetGun Production in collaboration with Twin Cities Trapeze Center
An ensemble circus-theater work exploring grief. Whether it’s the sudden loss of a loved one, a job, a marriage, or another time in your life where it feels like the rug has been ripped out from under you, grief is an unavoidable and universal experience. How do we as individuals and a community move forward through the darkness towards joy? This piece is being created in collaboration with the Twin Cities Trapeze Center and will feature Twin Cities based circus and theater performers.
WHERE: Southern Theater, Minneapolis, MN
WHEN: September 2018
