THE PREFIX RE IS A VERSATILE MORPHEME BY NATURE. USED WITH “AGAIN” TO INDICATE REPETITION, OR WITH “BACK” TO INDICATE WITHDRAWAL, ITS PRESENCE INDICATES MOTION AND MOVEMENT. IT REGENERATES; REFURBISHES; RETYPES; RETRACES; REVERTS; REINTERPRETS; REDOS; RETURNS. IT IS A CATALYST FOR TRANSFORMATION, REBIRTH, AND RENEWAL, INHABITING A REMARKABLE POWER TO BREATHE NEW LIFE INTO THE FAMILIAR, TO RESURRECT THE FORGOTTEN, AND TO REIMAGINE THE WORLD AROUND US.
TOGETHER WITH THE EVENING’S PERFORMERS, MUSICIANS, AND ARTISTS, WE WILL DELVE INTO THIS MULTIFACETED THEME AND OFFER AN EXAMINATION OF HUMAN KINDS' INSISTENT NEED TO GO BACK; BECOME ANEW; GO AGAIN; AND PUSH AGAINST.
PLASTIC PRODUCTIONS CURATES AND PRODUCES INTERDISCIPLINARY PERFORMANCE EVENTS, BRINGING TOGETHER ARTISTS AND CREATORS FROM DIFFERENT FIELDS FOR ONE EVENING ONLY. BY BRINGING TOGETHER PRACTITIONERS FROM A WIDE RANGE OF FIELDS, THE EVENT FOSTERS AN ENVIRONMENT THAT BREAKS WITH THE STANDARD FORMATS OF PRESENTATION.
OUR AIM IS TO MAKE ART AND CULTURE DYNAMIC, ALIVE, AND APPROACHABLE WHILE FOSTERING THE SENSATION OF EXPLORATION AND DISCOVERY. WITH OUR EVENTS WE WANT TO ENCOURAGE CONNECTION, COLLABORATION, AND CONVERSATION, CREATING EXPERIENCES THAT LAST BEYOND THE SCOPE OF AN EVENING.
