ABOUT BeYOND BOOM & BUST
|
Beyond Boom & Bust is a multi-year initiative exploring the cultivation of rural economic and social resilience through performance. The project launched with the development of the original documentary dance-theatre piece The (w)HOLE, based on interviews with Illinois Valley community member about the economy, visions for the future, and what wealth means. Since then, Beyond Boom & Bust co-produced Shelter-In-Plays, a responsive online theatre festival of original works presented at the onset of COVID 19 and aimed at raising morale and connecting people virtually during a time of physical isolation. Our third initiative OUT Dancing! aims to build resilience by connecting rural queers through story and dance.
