Audiences of all ages will delight in the comic antics of the "Potato People in School Daze" by the Canadian physical theater company Theatre Beyond Words.
Combining European mask work with North American-style animation, the "Potato People" are a series of nonverbal mask plays for family audiences that have toured internationally.
Directed by physical theater adjunct Robin Patterson, in collaboration with the Castellani Art Museum, "School Daze" is about the adventures and experiences of the first day of school, and a mother who has difficulty letting go.
"School Daze" will be on the NU Campus at the Castellani Art Museum at 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 15, and at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 16, and Saturday, Feb 17. A 2 p.m. matinee will be held on Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 18 (with post-show discussion).
