When going to see a play, we all know the feeling of walking into a lobby, being handed a program and taking a seat in a hushed, darkened theater. Think again.
With the world premiere of DODO, Bricolage has set the bar even higher in terms of both participatory theater and museum programming.
Created in collaboration with Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh, DODO explores the intersection of art, science and human history via the company’s latest immersive theater piece, and its largest production to date.
Experience a one-of-a-kind night inside one of Pittsburgh’s top cultural destinations as you wander throughout the museum’s world-renowned galleries and collections areas, and step into unexpected behind-the-scenes spaces never before opened to the public.
As interactions between visitors and museums — and between performers and audiences — blur, the multi-sensory journey examines complex topics such physical existence, covert research, extinction, memory, the future, and “un-natural selection.”
The brainchild of Jeffrey Carpenter, Gab Cody, Tami Dixon and Sam Turich — the creative team behind Bricolage’s nationally acclaimed shows OjO and STRATA — the visceral and personalized production puts participants at the center of an intimate and innovative experience.
