"It's Time" at the Outpost
May 8, 2010, 10am & 3pm: "It’s Time," an object theatre performance for ages 1-3. At the Outpost Performance Space, 210 Yale SE. Free for kids ages 1-3. $5 for Kids 4+. $10 Adults. $20 Maximum per family.

More info: Outpost 505-268-0044.

Isabelle Kessler stars as a character, dressed all in gray, arriving in her workshop. In this quiet gray nest, color is born, feather by feather. A yellow feather: the sunrise? A blue feather: storm of blue sky? Story fragments create a bird, then an egg -- what color will it be? Simplicity and tranquility are explored in this performance, which was created for the age when each moment is a discovery and magic is in the emotions.
