It’s my (LOZ DODD) show—a special show like NO other. DIFFERENT EVERY TIME. Powerful. Urgent. A Happening! What is all this? Who are we really? How do we stay open to it all? It is the crumbling of the old world, its the emergence of the new. COME. You’ll leave changed—GUARANTEED!
Part performance art, part contemporary clowning, This Can’t Be It is a semi-improvised, feverish & open hearted exploration of how we stay open—to mystery, to each other—in the midst of uncertainty and collapse.
