Off-Leash Area presents Now Eye See You, Now Eye Don’t performing in the Ritz Studio
Sage and Ivey Award-winning dance and theatre company Off-Leash Area takes over the Ritz’s back studio and turns it into a multi-dimensional visual feast in a moving story about a painter who goes blind.
With a cast of thirteen dancers and actors, the company follows the sometimes comical, sometimes maddening journey of an uninsured painter as he navigates both the health care industry – complete with tap dancing insurance salesmen and surgeons played by modern dancers – and the contemporary art world, with hedge fund collectors and dealers portrayed as a flock of birds who primp and puff themselves up to grotesque proportions.
All of this is performed in McKnight Theatre Fellowship recipient Paul Herwig’s environmental interactive set, with choreography by O’Shaughnessy and Walker/Momentum-commissioned Jennifer Ilse, a script by Workhouse Collective’s Dominic Orlando, lighting by Mike Grogan, costumes by Sonya Berlovitz, and an original score by Reid Kruger.

Ticket information:
- General admission, $15-20 (sliding scale).
- Pay-as-able performance on May 2.
- Reserve tickets by calling Off-Leash at (612) 724-7372 only.
