Mariposa

I consider faith wholeheartedly
But I target my emotions out of panic
As if Im scared to choose wrong
go to dumb people heaven or unfunny hell.
My favorite part now about faith
Is that it does not hold you captive
By design.
God exists within a place that is solely human
In suspension of our disbelief.
Because if we lived within absolutes
If we could not question faith
There would be no venture.
And the most radical truth is hidden, obscure, and fleet-footed. But at the same time, it is meant to be found.
I am scared to die.

Emerging Artists returns with their one-of-a-kind festival. Visit the theater any evening during this three-week event, and you'll find yourself transported in a number of surprising ways: by a single performer embodying a whole host of characters; by a more experimental theater piece "done differently" that challenges and delights; by a cozy two-person show exploring relationships; or perhaps by a bouncy new musical that will have you humming. Emerging Artists has always been about new works, new talents, new voices. That's never been more evident than now.

NO REFUNDS will be granted.
