 Out North's 16-year tradition of quirky one-person performances by local artists with a running time of under a half hour each.
"Fear No Fear" the visual artist Don Decker takes a light-hearted look at our common fears through performance video and a live reading. It was "The most beautiful part of the night," according to MIke Dunham, ADN.
"Letters to Ho Chi Minh" by Van Le
explores a journey back to a country, a time and a history that is the backdrop to her family's escape from Vietnam.
"Apocalypse When I Get Around To It" Mark Muro returns for his fifth Under :30 with a story involving a clash of mythologies, both personal and political that he experienced on a recent road trip with an ultra-conservative sibling.
Admission: $12 advance-$15 door
