The Story of Stuff

Where does stuff come from? Where does it go?

Make your purchase "count" this Black Friday! Urbanity Dance's "The Story of Stuff" opens on Black Friday and is an empowering extension of Annie Leonard's riveting documentary. Eighteen dancers blend strong contemporary dance with entertaining costumes, dance, lighting and sound. The performance promises to be an alternative holiday theater experience. Crafts are woven into the venue, featuring sustainable gifts from global-minded artisans, advocating for global thinking and local sustainability.
